Players to Watch: Baltimore Orioles vs. Boston Red Sox
Baltimore Orioles
Pete Alonso — 1B. First baseman Pete Alonso supplies the middle of Baltimore’s lineup with 21 home runs and 66 RBIs this season, hitting .246 in the process. His power has made him the focal point of an Orioles offense trying to close out the year strong.
Taylor Ward — LF. Ward has quietly turned into one of the more disciplined bats in the Orioles’ order, hitting .251 with a .389 on-base percentage from left field. His .361 slugging percentage rounds out a complete season at the plate, mixing patience with occasional pop.
Gunnar Henderson — SS. The shortstop’s power numbers stand out even in a down offensive season, as Henderson has launched 17 home runs and driven in 44 RBIs for Baltimore. His .289 on-base percentage reflects the growing pains of a lineup still finding consistency, but the raw pop remains evident every time he steps into the box.
Boston Red Sox
Willson Contreras — 1B. Willson Contreras anchors Boston’s lineup from first base, hitting .283 with 22 home runs and 64 RBIs this season. His .551 slugging percentage and .380 on-base percentage give the Red Sox thump and patience in the same at bat, making him a steady presence near the middle of the order.
Ceddanne Rafaela — CF. In center field, Rafaela offers a different look, batting .281 with eight home runs and 41 RBIs while playing steady defense up the middle. His .435 slugging percentage this season shows he brings more than just an average bat, giving Boston length further down the lineup.
Jarren Duran — LF. Speed sets Duran apart in this lineup, as he pairs 13 home runs with 48 RBIs and 14 stolen bases this season. That combination of pop and quickness on the bases makes him a threat once he reaches first, regardless of the score.
