They enter this game with a 40-25 record overall and have a home record of 20-14.

Tommy Henry is their starting pitcher on Monday while Zach Davies is making his start in this game on Tuesday. He is 1-1 with a 4.68 ERA this season. His team won their last 2 straight games this season with him making an appearance. In his last MLB regular season start, he allowed 2 earned runs, 0 homers, and 1 BB with 8 strikeouts on 5 hits through 6.2 innings played against the Washington Nationals.

The current betting odds have the Diamondbacks listed as an underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Diamondbacks are off to a really hot start this season as they are leading the NL West at the moment and have one of the best offenses in the league. They have been on a roll lately coming into this series on a win streak and they have been a really good team at home all year too. The Phillies have also been hot lately after a long homestand but now they are going on the road where they haven't been nearly as good this season. Wheeler is on the mound for them here and he hasn't been bad in his starts lately but he hasn't been as good in his road starts and the Diamondbacks have a very strong offense here that has been putting up runs all weekend. They also have Davies as their starter here and he has been good in his starts lately too. Davies will pitch a lot better at home here while the Phillies will continue to struggle in their road games like they have been doing all season. The D-Backs have also been a huge money machine as an underdog this season so there is too much value in the home dog here. The best way to place a bet here is on the Diamondbacks to win this game.
