Batter-Based Trend of the Day:

-- The Brewers are 11-0 SU in franchise history as a 140-plus favorite after a game in which Lorenzo Cain was hitless in at least three at bats, with every win by multiple runs.

Starter-Based Trend of the Day:

-- The Orioles are 0-11 SU in franchise history when David Hess starts as a dog of more than 120 when their bullpen gave up runs in each of their last two games and they lost his last start.
