The Orioles have been showing improvement, notably with Charlie Morton’s solid pitching performance, despite a rough first inning against the Athletics where he allowed four runs but managed to stabilize and help secure a win. Baltimore’s offense has been effective recently, with key contributions from players like Jackson Holliday and Gunnar Henderson, while the Athletics have relied on power hitting from Tyler Soderstrom and Jacob Wilson. The Athletics have struggled overall this season but have moments of strong offensive output, including a recent 14-3 win over the Twins and a 5-4 win against the Orioles. Both teams rank near the bottom in pitching stats, with the Orioles' staff ERA at 5.10 and the Athletics' at 5.79, reflecting challenges on the mound. The teams continue to vie for momentum in the AL East and West respectively, with Baltimore aiming to capitalize on their recent winning streak and the Athletics seeking to improve their home record.
