Sunday's Pitching Matchup Expected to Be Highly Competitive - Burnes vs. Wheeler: Who Will Come Out on Top?

The upcoming pitching matchup scheduled for Sunday is expected to be highly competitive. Both starting pitchers have demonstrated consistent quality starts and command on the mound, showcasing their elite skills. While both team lineups are formidable, the question remains - who will have the upper hand in this matchup?

Corbin Burnes, with his experience facing Philadelphia in the NL, may have a slight advantage over Philadelphia's starter, Zack Wheeler, who has limited experience against the Orioles. In previous encounters, Burnes has held the Phillies to a .102 batting average, with excellent performance and dominance over their lineup. This statistical advantage leads me to believe that the Baltimore Orioles will secure a victory by at least two runs. Their strong performance in day games at Camden Yards, coupled with their ability to potentially capitalize on an early lead against Wheeler, make a compelling case for a successful outcome with Burnes on the mound.
