The Philadelphia Phillies take on the Milwaukee Brewers. The Phillies have won six in a row and have a new manager to boot. The Brewers have been heading in the opposite direction, losing five in a row. The Phillies will look to continue their streak by sending Zach Eflin to the mound and the Brewers will have their best going to stop their losing streak with Corbin Burnes taking the mound. Eflin is 2-4 this season with a 3.88 ERA in nine starts. In his last start, he went eight shutout innings, giving up just five hits and striking out six. Burnes has posted a 3-3 record this season and a 2.50 ERA in 11 starts. He had an uncharacteristic outing last time out. He lasted just 3.2 innings, giving up five runs on eight hits.

Philadelphia is playing better at the moment but will be facing Milwaukee's best pitcher. The Brewers are putting up 1.2 runs a game in the five losses. Buenes did not pitch well last time out but you can't expect the same today. I do expect the Phillies to score more than the Brewers and come away with a nice win as a dog.

Play on Philadelphia. This is a 7* play.
