Analyzing past games reveals that the Orioles' hitters have maintained a batting average of .265 with an on-base percentage (OBP) of .306. Despite a relatively low slugging percentage (SLG) of .294 indicating fewer extra-base hits, their ability to get on base and create scoring opportunities has been evident. The team's pitchers have also stood out, boasting an earned run average (ERA) of 0.00 over nine innings in their last outing, highlighting their capability to stifle opposing hitters effectively.


The bullpen's performance has been particularly noteworthy, with a strikeout rate (K9) of over 10 per nine innings and maintaining runners on base (LOB), which underscores their ability to escape tight situations without conceding runs.

On the other side, the Mariners will not make it easy for the Orioles. With home-field advantage at T-Mobile Park—a venue known for its unique dimensions that can influence game outcomes—the Mariners will look to capitalize on this aspect. However, given the Orioles' recent form and statistical trends showing strong pitching and consistent hitting, they are well-equipped for this challenge.


Fans can catch this exciting encounter live on MASN2 at 4:10 PM ET on July 4th from Seattle's iconic T-Mobile Park. This game is not just another fixture in the calendar; it represents another step for the Orioles in solidifying their position as one of this season's standout teams while navigating through challenges away from home turf.
