00:00Kansas City and Baltimore. Second game of the day. 438

00:06starts. Seth Lugo, Zach Efflin minus 152 favorite here for the

00:11Baltimore Orioles in a total of seven and a half. Once again, a

00:14home team facing an elimination in an afternoon game today,

00:18Dubsy. Yeah, there's a lot of green lights here pointing

00:21towards. It should be all about the Baltimore Orioles for Zach

00:23Efflin. He's been pretty strong through the regular season. Top

00:2730 ERA, 134 Ks there in terms of the last couple of starts.

00:32He's got the result three of three of the last five there.

00:34They should try and leave him in for four, maybe five innings

00:37pitch. It's just going to depend on how he starts this game. If

00:40he gives up a bit of offense, it could be all over. Must win

00:43spot. Decent starting arm getting out there for Baltimore

00:46with the bats getting set to light up. We're not going to

00:48get another scoreless affair like we saw yesterday with the

00:52Rawls getting that win one to nothing. A few more runs for

00:55this one. I think Baltimore alive and trying to square this

00:58thing up. It is so we just talked to Craig Mish and yes,

01:01it is so hard to predict these games because typically in the

01:04regular season, Dubsy, right? You know that pitch is going to

01:06go at least five to six innings. You know, he's coming

01:08into the bullpen. We don't know particularly because the

01:11Baltimore Orioles say they hope their starting pitcher goes six

01:14to seven innings in his dominant, but if he struggles

01:16even early, this might even be a one to nothing game Dubsy in

01:19the third inning with two runners on and one out and they

01:21could pull their starting pitcher to sort of go match up

01:23by match up the rest of the way, but Seth Ludlow pitcher

01:26for the Kansas City Royals really good over the last 30

01:29days. He's take a look at his 090 ice on weighted on base

01:32percentage against the 237. That's spectacular. Zach

01:36Eflin, a little bit of a mixed card here, particularly

01:38struggling against left handed batters, Massey, Pasquantino,

01:43Melendez, Isbell. Maybe they can do damage, but it's play on

01:46baseball and we can't wait for it.
