Baltimore Orioles vs. St. Louis Cardinals

Quick read:

If you want a game where the O’s bats do the heavy lifting, this is it – the Orioles have enough firepower to make St. Louis look like a Sunday‑league squad.

Baltimore’s 1,036 hits and 161 home runs this season prove a lineup that can turn a single into a four‑bag, while the Cardinals have barely nudged past the 600‑run mark and lack that extra pop.

The odds aren’t screaming value, and the O’s pitching has been leaking more runs than a busted faucet, so an early Cardinals burst could leave this pick a little soggy.
