Yeah, but look at these stats:
RED SOX PROBABLE STARTER: Lowe (11-4, 4.84 ERA). On Sunday, Lowe gave up three earned runs and nine hits in six innings, but did not receive a decision in Boston's 6-4 win over New York. In 25 career appearances, including seven starts, against the Orioles, he is 5-4 with a 2.77 ERA. On April 13, Lowe gave up five hits in seven shutout innings of a 2-0 win over Baltimore -- his only appearance against them this season.
ORIOLES PROBABLE STARTER: Rodrigo Lopez (3-6, 6.02 ERA). Lopez gave up a season high-tying eight earned runs and eight hits in 3 2-3 innings of Sunday's 10-1 loss to Toronto. He is 0-2 with an 8.18 ERA in two starts against the Red Sox this season. In seven career appearances, including six starts, against Boston, Lopez is 4-2 with a 4.05 ERA.
He's been good on the road against Baltimore.
