The Phillies are coming into this game with a 37-34 record overall and they are 18-17 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They have lost 3 of their last 4 games but are coming into this one off of a win in their last game which snapped a 3 game losing streak that they were on. They just lost their 2-game series against the Texas Rangers getting swept 2-0 and they are playing the 3rd game of a 4-game series with the Padres on Saturday. This will be the 3rd game of the series on Saturday with the 2nd game still to be played on Friday. Aaron Nola is the starting pitcher for them on Friday while Zach Eflin will be on the mound for them here on Saturday. He is 2-5 with a 4.43 ERA this season. His team lost their last 2 straight games this season with him starting. In his last start, he allowed 4 ER, 1 HR, and 0 BB with 2 Ks on 5 hits in 2 IP against the Washington Nationals. They scored 2 runs in their last series averaging 1 run scored per game in that span and they allowed 11 runs against them averaging 5.5 runs allowed per game.

 

The Padres are coming into this game with a 44-28 record overall and they are 20-14 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They have won 3 of their last 4 games but are coming into this one off of a loss in their last game which snapped a 3 game winning streak that they were on. They just won their 3-game series against the Arizona Diamondbacks 3-0 completing the sweep and they are playing the 3rd game of a 4-game series with the Phillies on Saturday. This will be the 3rd game of the series on Saturday with the 2nd game still to be played on Friday. Rookie pitcher MacKenzie Gore is the starting pitcher for them on Friday while Blake Snell will be on the mound for them here on Saturday. He is 0-4 with a 5.46 ERA this season. His team lost their last 6 straight games this season with him as a starter. In his last start, he allowed 4 earned runs, 0 homers, and 4 BB with 5 strikeouts on 5 hits in 4.2 innings played against the Colorado Rockies. They scored 17 runs in their last series averaging just under 6 runs scored per game in that span and they allowed 7 runs against them averaging just over 2 runs allowed per game.

 

The Padres are coming into this game after dropping the series opener in this series but they have been playing well in their recent games. They are going up against a Phillies team that has been playing very well in their recent games but have been cooling off a little after going on a long streak. The Phillies have Eflin starting in this game and he has not been great this season but is also coming off of a game where he did not pitch well and allowed 4 runs. The Padres have Snell starting here and he has not had a good season either, also coming off of a bad start in his last one, but he has also been a proven pitcher over his career and is pitching a lot worse than he should be. He has been struggling but is bound to bounce back as his numbers start to correct and he is a much better option here over Eflin on the road in this game. The best bet here is on the Padres to win this game.

"We just laid some good at-bats on him. We grinded a little bit and once we got some momentum we just kept it. We got some energy and just kept rolling with it." - Rob Thomson after his team’s win against the Padres on Thursday.

 

 

"I don't know how he does it. You actually look at the discoloration, what it looks like, the swelling's down but it doesn't look like it feels too good. I don't think anything with him at this point surprises me." - Bob Melvin after his team’s loss against the Phillies on Thursday.
