The Phillies were on a 3 game losing streak but now enter this game off of a win. They lost their last series against the Chicago Cubs getting swept 3-0 in a 3-game series. They enter this game with a 50-46 record overall and have a home record of 25-24. This is the 3rd game of a 3-game series with the Braves on Wednesday with the 2nd game still to be played on Tuesday. Their offense ranks 9th in the MLB with a .725 OPS. Aaron Nola is on the mound on Tuesday while Kyle Gibson will be throwing the first pitch in this game on Wednesday. He is 5-4 with a 4.69 ERA this season. His team won 2 of their last 3 games this season with him making an appearance. In his last start, he allowed 6 ER, 1 HR, and 3 BB with 0 Ks on 6 hits through 4.1 IP against the Chicago Cubs. 

The current betting odds have the Braves listed as a favorite here. The Braves have stumbled a little in their last 2 games but they have been playing very well over the last month and have really been climbing the standings. This is an important series to them and they should have the motivation to win here against a Phillies team that has not been hitting that well recently. Gibson is starting for the Phillies and he has been starting to slip in his recent starts. He allowed 6 runs in his last start but he has been allowing a lot of runs in his starts recently and the Braves will be able to score on him here with their hot lineup. The Braves have Morton starting here and he had a rough start to the season but he has been a lot better in his recent starts and is not allowing as many runs anymore. The Braves have the pitching advantage in this game and the better offense. The best way to place a bet here is on the Braves to win this game.
