Best Bet: Rays Moneyline
Both sides have enjoyed one-sided victories in this series. Tampa rebounded from a shutout loss in Game 1 with strong performances on both sides of the ball. Rasmussen has been allowing two to three earned runs while giving his team a strong chance to win. The Orioles offense reverted to old patterns and will try to get the entire lineup rolling.
