Seattle Mariners vs Baltimore Orioles Prediction: Mariners to avoid a sweep defeat

The Seattle Mariners and Baltimore Orioles will meet at T-Mobile Park in the finale of an MLB series. The Orioles have the lead after consecutive wins. How will this encounter end?

The Seattle Mariners are off a run of poor performances, and the home side will look to have something out of this series. In their last series, the Seattle Mariners lost to the Tampa Bay Rays, Cleveland Guardians, and the Minnesota Twins. However, in this series, the Seattle Mariners have scored just one run while conceding six. 

Heading into this finale, the Seattle Mariners have a 47-41 record and are seated 7th in the American League standings.

The Baltimore Orioles will be confident of completing a sweep in this series following a decent start. In their opener, the Baltimore Orioles boasted a two run win, and they pulled off a 1-4 victory in the second game. However, those wins are a testament to the Orioles' strong performances following a win over the Cleveland Guardians in their prior series, where they scored 19 runs. 

In the MLB this season, the Baltimore Orioles have a 55-31 record and are seated top of the American League standings, reaching the 0.64 mark.

The Baltimore Orioles have been decent this season, and we could expect them to enter this finale with so much confidence. However, while the Seattle Mariners have been disappointing lately, it is worth noting that they have not suffered a sweeping defeat in the recent series, and their overall performances this season have not been poor. I expect this one to be close, but I am on the Mariners to take something in this finale.
