Key Stats

Game Prediction
We called it right yesterday; now, let’s see if we can do it again. With Jake Irvin pitching, the Phillies’ offense is liable to go off in this one. Irvin is decent, but today’s matchup is not favorable. Suarez gives Philly the pitching advantage in this one, and considering how bad the Nationals are at the plate, he could go 6-7 innings. Let’s run it back and roll with Philadelphia to notch another win and clinch the series.
Final Pick
Philadelphia Phillies ML (-175)
