Story summary

On Tuesday night, the Mets will face off against the Orioles at Citi Field in Queens. Both teams are struggling near the bottom of their respective standings as the season draws to a close. The Mets' starter, Sean Manaea, had a poor September performance, surrendering 16 hits and nine earned runs across 10⅔ innings. Meanwhile, the Orioles will send Shane Baz to the mound; he has struggled away from home with a 2-8 record and a 4.18 ERA in 10 starts. Sportsbooks list the Mets as -130 favorites for this matchup, with an Over/Under of 8.5 total runs.

Sports journalist Mike Turay predicts that despite the teams' current standings, Juan Soto remains a significant threat at the plate and is expected to continue his success against Baz, who he has historically performed well against. This prediction leads Turay to suggest betting on Soto recording a home run with odds of +320 at FanDuel.
