The Boston Red Sox meet the Baltimore Orioles in the 2022 MLB Little League Classic on Sunday Night Baseball. Boston won Saturday’s meeting 4-3 and look to win its second game in a row and fifth of its last eight meetings against Baltimore. Both teams remain within shouting distance of a playoff spot with Baltimore entering the game at 62-58, 2.5 games out of the third Wild-Card position. Boston is 60-61, but is just five games back in the playoff chase.
First pitch from Muncy Bank Ballpark is set for 7:10 p.m. ET. Both teams are listed at -110 on the money line (risk $110 to win $100) in the latest Red Sox vs. Orioles odds from Caesars Sportsbook, while the total number of runs Vegas thinks will be scored, or the over/under, is 8.5. Before making any Orioles vs. Red Sox picks, be sure to see the MLB predictions and betting advice from SportsLine’s proven computer model.

Shortstop Xander Bogaerts looks to get back on track after having a three-game hitting streak snapped on Saturday. Bogaerts has been one of Boston’s top hitters all season and enters the game batting .300 with nine homers, 49 RBI and 65 runs scored. He has had a lot of successful against the Orioles, hitting .364 with six doubles, one homer and seven RBI in 10 games. For his career, Bogaerts is batting .282 against Baltimore with 32 doubles, 18 homers and 82 RBI.
Third baseman Rafael Devers has also been a consistent offensive threat for Boston this season. He was 1-for-4 in Saturday’s win and is hitting .296 on the season. He has 25 homers, 63 RBI and 67 runs scored. Devers is hitting .318 on the season against the Orioles with three doubles and a homer. In 80 career games against Baltimore, he is hitting .285 with 22 doubles, one triple, 16 homers and 50 RBI.
Despite the Red Sox dominance in the all-time series with Baltimore, the Orioles have won six of 11 meetings this season. Shortstop Ramon Urias has already had himself quite the series, going 4-for-8 with a home run. He has found Boston pitching to his liking all season, batting .302 with two doubles, two homers and five RBI in 11 games against them. For his career, Urias is hitting .329 against the Red Sox with four doubles, two homers and eight RBI in 24 games.
Baltimore is expected to send right-hander Dean Kremer (5-4, 3.58 ERA) to the hill. He has won two of his last three starts, including a 4-2 decision at Toronto on Tuesday. In that game, Kremer went seven innings, allowing two earned runs, seven hits and one walk, while striking out six. His last loss came at Boston on Aug. 11, going 5 2/3 innings, allowing four earned runs on six hits, walking one and striking out six.
