The Orioles kick off a three-game series in Seattle against the fourth-place Mariners, first pitch at 10:10 Eastern time, for all you night owls out there. As Mark Brown pointed out in his series preview, Orioles pitchers have performed way better at home than on the road, with a 4.84 away ERA and a 3.27 one at home. (Mt. Walltimore must feel so proud right now.)
Big righty Tyler Wells, for his part, has typified this trend. His road ERA (4.25) is more than two runs higher than it is at home (2.20), a gap that’s also boosted by his early struggles in the season.
