Chicago Form & Recent Results
Chicago heads into this matchup riding a three-game winning streak and has taken three of their last five games overall, so they’ve clearly started to find some rhythm. Their momentum really showed on Sunday in a 3–0 win over the Blue Jays, a result that also completed a three-game sweep. Starter Davis Martin set the tone by working six strong innings, giving up just four hits and no earned runs. He battled through a couple of walks, but he limited damage the entire way and added six strikeouts to keep Toronto’s lineup quiet.
Munetaka Murakami has been one of Chicago’s biggest power threats in the early season, leading the team with four home runs. Colson Montgomery sits next in line with two homers of his own, giving them another option for pop in the middle of the order. When it comes to driving runs in, Miguel Vargas and Murakami have both been productive early, tied for the team lead with seven RBIs each. Tristan Peters has also stood out at the plate, leading the White Sox with a .304 batting average through his first eight games this season. Even though Chicago has only averaged 3.2 runs per game over their last five games, that sweep of the reigning AL Champion Blue Jays feels like the kind of game-to-game boost that could carry over as they begin this next series against the Orioles.
Baltimore Form & Recent Results
Baltimore heads into this game in a rough stretch, riding a three-game losing streak and having dropped four of their last five games overall. Their most recent loss was an 8–2 defeat to Pittsburgh on Sunday, which also completed a three-game sweep by the Pirates. It was a tough day from the start for Orioles starter Chris Bassitt, who lasted just two innings and was hit hard, giving up six hits and six earned runs. He also issued two walks and didn’t record a strikeout, putting Baltimore in an early hole they couldn’t climb out of.
Offensively, the Orioles have had a few bright spots this season, even with the losses piling up. Gunnar Henderson has been one of the main contributors, leading the team in home runs with two, and he’s also been their top run-producer with six RBIs so far. Behind him, Samuel Basallo, Dylan Beavers, Tyler O’Neill, and Pete Alonso are tied for second on the team with one home run each. Taylor Ward has also been a steady presence at the plate, leading Baltimore in batting average at .343 through his first nine games. Still, the bigger issue lately has been run prevention because over their last five games, the Orioles have been allowing an average of 5.4 runs per game. If their pitching can’t tighten up soon, it’ll be hard to stop this skid, especially with a series on the road in Chicago against the White Sox.
Key Players
- Baltimore’s Gunnar Henderson this season: 2 HRs, 6 RBIs, .216 AVG
- Chicago’s Miguel Vargas this season: 1 HR, 7 RBIs, .276 AVG
