00:00The Orioles, DRS, and the Yankees getting ready for the second game of this midweek set.
00:05The Yanks and Carlos Rodon, a minus 148 favorite on this Tuesday evening.
00:10Total nine and a half.
00:12Again, some pretty nice weather here on the East Coast early in the week.
00:16Baltimore winning yesterday 4-3 in the opening game of this set.
00:21Can the Yankees respond to even things up after two games in Baltimore?
00:26Yeah, tough scene for Baltimore tonight.
00:28Carlos Rodon's going to be on the mound.
00:29Now, last year, a lot of struggling there.
00:31People upset.
00:32Makes a lot of money.
00:32Should be better.
00:33This year has corrected a lot of his ways so far.
00:35Only 144 batters faced with an ISO against of 138 and a weighted on base percentage of 259.
00:40But the key ingredient is to right-handed batters, Ben.
00:43112 batters he's faced from the right side of 117 ISO.
00:46Very good.
00:47And a clean weighted on base percentage of 241.
00:49How about a K rate to right-handed batters?
00:51Almost 34%.
00:52You take a look at his seasonal statistics.
00:5436 innings pitched.
00:56A 350 ERA and a 334 XF number.
00:59This is the pitcher that the Yankees expected when they acquired him via free agency.
01:03Now, let's take a look at the Baltimore lineup tonight.
01:05The guys that'll be in there, Cedric Mullins is a lefty.
01:08He's hit left-handed pitching very well.
01:10You take a look at Ramon Nourius.
01:11Also, he's hit left-hand pitching well.
01:14Everybody else, atrocious.
01:16And now we're going to see Kyle Gibson on the mound for the first time this season to see how that prevails.
01:20Grisham, Judge, and Rice, all higher numbers.
01:22So, when we look at the side, it should be the Yankees as a favorite.
01:26I don't know how many runs we're going to get out of Baltimore tonight, even though 81-degree temperatures with a double-digit wind blowing out to dead center field.
01:35Maybe we take a look at some of those home run shots for the New York Yankees tonight.
01:39But Rodon is the better pitcher tonight.
01:41I do think the Yankees win.
