Game Thread # 85: Baltimore Orioles (40-41) @ Milwaukee Brewers (44-40)

It's Interleague Week for the Brewers...except for that game at Wrigley that was magically rescheduled from May 20th...

Happy Fourth of July Eve! The roof will be open and balls will be escapin' Miller Park today as two offensive minded teams try to out-slug each other.

The Birds will send lefty Wade Miley (3-6, 4.54) out to compete with Chase Anderson...aw, shoot, Brent Suter (0-1, 4.20) for the series opener. The Brewers go with a righty dominant batting order today, with Travis Shaw the only lefty in the line-up. Miley hit .151 in 247 plate appearances for the D-Backs with an OPS of .371. He has a homer. Wonder if the Orioles might rather have Chris Davis in their batting order.

LINE-UPS:

Baltimore Orioles

1. Joey Rickard (R) LF

2. Manny Machado (R) 3B

3. Jonathan Schoop (R) 2B

4. Adam Jones (R) CF

5. Mark Trumbo (R) RF

6. Trey Mancini (R) 1B

7. Welington Castillo (R) C

8. Ruben Tejada (R) SS

9. Wade Miley (L) P
