We enter today with a split series, with the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/baseball\/2023\/07\/07\/giants-mariners-series-interleague\/\" target=\"_self\">Seattle Mariners<\/a> taking the first game, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/baseball\/2023\/04\/06\/reds-jason-vosler-breakout\/\" target=\"_self\">Arizona Diamondbacks<\/a> the second. Both teams will be sending out ace-caliber pitching to help steer the series in their direction. The home team will be represented by Merrill Kelly. A veteran pitcher that has truly taken it to the next level this year. To this point in the season, he owns a 3.12 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and a 9-4 record. On top of it all, he is facing a lineup that loves to strike out.<\/p>\n<p>[metabet_core_odds_board query=&#8221;530367&#8243; site_id=&#8221;lastwordonsports&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>The pick: Merrill Kelly Over 5.5 Ks &amp; Alt Run Line Under 13.5 (-136) 1U<\/p>\n<p>NRFI (-118) 0.25U<\/p>\n<h3>Yankees @ Orioles, 7:10 PM EST<\/h3>\n<p>For our second matchup of the day, we are targeting Sunday Night Baseball. The <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/baseball\/2023\/07\/28\/all-stars-yabjees-coaching\/\" target=\"_self\">New York Yankees<\/a> visit their division rival <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/baseball\/2023\/07\/19\/orioles-acquire-rookie-pitcher-oakland\/\" target=\"_self\">Baltimore Orioles<\/a>. The Yankees have been tragic on the road in July. Dropping an incredible eight games out of 11, never winning more than once in each series. Guess what the Yankees did last night in the second game of this series. I like this pattern to continue here, especially with Dean Kremer in the driver&#8217;s seat for the Orioles, and dreadful Luis Severino tasked with containing the O&#8217;s offense.<\/p>\n<p>[metabet_core_game_tile query=&#8221;530366&#8243; size=&#8221;350&#215;300&#8243; site_id=&#8221;lastwordonsports&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>The Pick: Orioles F5 -0.5 (+104) 1U<\/p>\n<p>Aaron Judge 1+ RBI (+135) 0.5U<\/p>\n<p>Ryan O&#8217;Hearn 1+ RBI (+135) 0.25U<\/p>\n<h3>Additional Best Bets<\/h3>\n<p>Max Muncy 1+ RBI (+120) 0.25U<\/p>\n<p>HR PARLAY: Gunnar Henderson &amp; Elly De La Cruz 1+ HR (+3662) 0.25U<\/p>\n<p>Main photo credits:<\/p>\n<p>Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports<\/p>\n<p>Players mentioned:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=weavelu01,weaver001luk&amp;search=Luke+Weaver&amp;utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-07-30_br\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Luke Weaver<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/search\/search.fcgi?pid=muncyma01,muncy-002max&amp;search=Max+Muncy&amp;utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-07-30_br\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Max Muncy<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/k\/kellyme01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-07-30_br\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Merrill Kelly<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/k\/kremede01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-07-30_br\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dean Kremer<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/s\/severlu01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-07-30_br\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Luis Severino<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/j\/judgeaa01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-07-30_br\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Aaron Judge<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/o\/ohearry01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-07-30_br\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ryan O&#8217;Hearn<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/h\/hendegu01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-07-30_br\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gunnar Henderson<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/d\/delacel01.shtml?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2023-07-30_br\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Elly De La Cruz<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two great nights on the trot for the Best Bets series!
