If Marco Estrada is keeping the ball inside the ballpark, he stands a chance to win. His opponent Friday, the Baltimore Orioles, average 0.86 home runs per road game and have a bottom-third road slugging percentage. Their 100 runs are worst in the American League, and only Boston averages less runs per game than Baltimore. The O’s rank in the top 10 in strikeouts and 10th worst in walks taken among all teams.
In 49 at-bats, the Orioles that have faced Estrada are slashing .224/.278/.469 with 3 homers, 8 runs and a 19-to-4 strikeout-to-walk ratio. Only Steve Pearce has seen him for any amount of time with success (.333 average, .856 OPS in nine at-bats).
