MLB: UNDER THE LIGHTS TRIPLE PLAY
(MLB) Philadelphia vs. Washington,
Point Spread: -1.50 | -119.00 Philadelphia (Away)
Result: Loss
The Philadelphia Phillies and Washington Nationals meet in an important series for the Phillies. They will open with Michael Lorenzen on the mound, while the Nationals will go with Joan Adon. The Phillies have a Wild Card spot and can't afford to lose games to a team like the Nationals. Michael Lorenzen is 2-0 since joining the Phillies with an anemic 1.06 ERA and 0.65 WHIP. He is coming off a no-hitter against this same National team. Washington is the second-worst team in the NL but is 6-4 in their last 10 games. Joan Adon is 1-0 and owns a 5.14 ERA and 0.86 WHIP in three starts and 5 appearances. Lorenzen was solid in Detroit but has been a better pitcher in Philadelphia. The Phillies are in a fight for the playoffs while the Nationals do not have a lot to play for. I like the Phillies to win this one big.

Play on Philadelphia minus 1.5 runs.
