The Orioles (-200) will cost you 2 times your potential return in this series finale.

Baltimore has Rodriguez on the bump, looking to get it back into the win column. However, the O's are a risky play after getting buried 19-8 Saturday.

.

Run line/Against the spread ATHLETICS +1.5 (+100) aren't a bad option on the run line as an underdog, especially at even-money.

Oakland has been surprisingly decent lately, winning 4 of the past 5 games, while going 4-0 on the run line as an underdog with 3 outright victories.

The Orioles -1.5 (-120) are just 3-3 in the past 6 outings, while going 0-4 on the run line in the past 4 as a favorite.

Over/Under UNDER 8 (+100) is worth playing lightly in this series finale under the California sun.

The total has gone low in 3 of the past 5 games for the O's, while also cashing in each of the past 2 starts by Rodriguez.

For the A's, the Under is 3-1 in the past 4 games, and 5-2 in the past 7 outings, while going 5-4 in Spence's past 9 assignments.
