Yesterday’s Results for Miami Marlins vs Philadelphia Phillies

VW'S MLB DIVISION DOG OF THE MONTH

Analysis: The Philadelphia Phillies return home after an odd road trip, through Toronto and Milwaukee, as they alternated wins and losses for a 3-3 split in the cities. Returning home now is perfect timing, as the Phils need to get back to the winning they've accustomed to, including a 5-1 win streak in Philadelphia. The Phillies have won 29 of 43 since April 28, and with Zack Wheeler on the bump, we have a good chance to double-dose the Miami Marlins. A heavy dose of Wheeler on the hill and a heavy dose of their offense against Miami starter Ryan Gusto. Let's start with Wheeler, who is 5-1 with a 2.22 ERA after nine starts, including a 4-1 showing and 2.17 ERA in his last seven outings. He is 2-0 with a 2.33 ERA in three starts in Philly, where he is holding opponents to a .136 batting average, limiting teams to five runs on nine hits across 19.1 innings of labor. Gusto has made four appearances (two starts) and is 0-1 with a 6.00 ERA, and in his lone road appearances, he's got a 13.50 ERA. Lay the run line and bank on big bats coming to life and Wheeler to silence Miami's.
