BALTIMORE (Interstat) — The New York Yankees look to get back on track Tuesday night against the Baltimore Orioles after dropping the series opener in a 3-2 loss Monday at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.

First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m. under clear skies with a temperature of 62 degrees.

Right-hander Will Warren (4-1, 3.12 ERA) takes the mound for the Yankees (26-16), who have lost four of their last five games after winning four straight against the Orioles from May 1-4 at Yankee Stadium. Warren has been a steady presence in New York’s rotation, allowing three earned runs or fewer in five of his six starts this season.

The Orioles (19-23) counter with right-hander Chris Bassitt, who has won five consecutive decisions. Bassitt is coming off a strong outing May 10 against Oakland, tossing six innings of one-run ball with six strikeouts in a 2-1 win. Over his last five starts, Bassitt has a 3.47 ERA with 22 strikeouts in 27 innings.

New York’s offense has cooled significantly during its recent skid, scoring two runs or fewer in three of the last four games. The Yankees managed just two runs on six hits Monday against Baltimore pitching.

Baltimore snapped a three-game losing streak with Monday’s win, which also evened the season series at two games apiece after the Yankees swept a four-game set in New York from May 1-4 by a combined 39-10 margin.

Players to watch

Yankees left-hander Carlos Rodón, who is not scheduled to start Tuesday, took a loss in his last outing May 10 at Milwaukee, allowing three earned runs on two hits over 4 1/3 innings with four strikeouts. Rodón has been effective overall this season, but the Yankees will look for him to provide a spark if called upon out of the bullpen.

Orioles right-hander Chris Bassitt, Tuesday’s starter, has been Baltimore’s most consistent pitcher. In his last start against the Athletics, he allowed one run on four hits in six innings. He also threw 6 2/3 innings of one-run ball against Houston on April 30 and fired five shutout innings at Cleveland on April 17.

Up next

The series continues Wednesday with the finale before both teams head into weekend action. New York travels to face the New York Mets in a Subway Series from May 15-17, while Baltimore visits the Washington Nationals for a three-game set starting Friday.
