Tillman Still Raking in Money for Bettors

The Astros and Orioles will play Game 3 of their four-game set tonight after splitting the first two in the series. It’s been a shootout at Camden Yards so far as these teams have combined for 41 runs in just 18 innings of baseball.

SHARK BITES
  • The total has gone OVER in 4 of Houston’s last 5 games.
  • Tillman has won $100 bettors $1397 this year and Fiers has lost $100 bettors $115.
  • Baltimore has a 40-20 record at home this season, the second-best standing in baseball.

The Orioles will call on Chris Tillman (15-4, 3.46 ERA) tonight to try and tilt the series in their favor. The righty has been as solid as you can ask for from a starter and still holds the title of most profitable pitcher in baseball. With an 8-1 record, Tillman has earned most of his money at home despite having a worse ERA in games he’s pitched in Baltimore.

Mike Fiers will take the mound for the Astros and will look get on the straight and narrow after coming off two rough road starts. The trends are pretty clear on Fiers – he sucks on the road. Through 12 home starts, Fiers owns a 3.36 ERA and through 11 road starts he owns a 6.27 ERA.

The O’s have the clear edge on the starting bump tonight and should be a good bet with how hot their offense has been this series.
