MLB Picks: Baltimore Orioles vs. Washington Nationals

The Baltimore Orioles have scored five runs or more in 10 consecutive road games, which is important to consider when making your MLB picks Tuesday, as they meet up with the Washington Nationals at Nationals Park.

Sports bettors will find that the Orioles are +106 underdogs in the pro baseball odds (courtesy of SBR Forum), while the total sits at 8.5 in the betting market.

Let's take a closer look at this interleague matchup from a betting perspective, while offering up a prediction along the way.

Baltimore Orioles

The Baltimore Orioles have won three of their last five games, with the OVER cashing in each of those contests.

MLB handicappers will find that the Orioles are 7-5 as road underdogs of +100 to +125 during the 2013 campaign.

Washington Nationals

The Washington Nationals have alternated wins and losses over their last four games, as they look to bounce back from a 6-2 setback to the Baltimore Orioles as -125 home favorites Monday.

Over the last two-plus seasons, the Nationals are 23-16 versus American League opponents.

Prediction

I'm going to recommend that readers back the Baltimore Orioles in the first five innings as one of their MLB picks Tuesday, as they've won six of their last eight games against the Washington Nationals.
