Matchup Keys That Decide This Game
- First-time through the order: If SF starters land early strike one, BAL’s power bats see fewer damage counts.
- Quality of contact: Track hard-hit rate (95+ mph) and line-drive share; these usually predict late-inning leverage.
- Bullpen gates: Who threw 20+ pitches the night before? That relief lane often determines the 7th–9th.
- Defense on the bases: Catcher pop time + infield turn speed can erase the few runners this series typically allows.
