Baltimore Orioles vs Boston Red Sox Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 08/19/25

Last night the Baltimore Orioles took game one of this two game series, and today, they’ll look to complete the sweep as they hand the ball over to the 35-year-old Tomoyuki Sugano. On the season, Sugano is 10-5 with a 4.13 ERA and 1.28 WHIP.  In his last four starts, he’s gone 3-0 with a 2.31 ERA. 

For the Red Sox, Walker Buehler will get the start, entering with a 7-7 record and 5.43 ERA. Buehler struggled in his last outing against the Astros, allowing four runs over six innings pitched. In his last four starts, he’s gone 1-1 with a 4.29 ERA. Offensively, the Orioles are averaging 5.4 runs per game over their last seven, while the Red Sox are averaging 5 runs per game over their last six. Taking a quick look at both teams pitching, the Orioles hold a 1.92 team ERA in that same span, where the Red Sox hold a 3.74 team ERA. This is going to be a classic AL East showdown, and at the end of the day, the Orioles have been playing better baseball as of late and I think they’ll be able to get the job done tonight.
