Philadelphia Phillies right-hander Taijuan Walker has given up six runs on eight hits and six walks across 8 2/3 innings in two starts since missing two months due to injury. The Phillies are 0-7 in his last seven starts.

The Phillies have the best home record in the MLB (42-23), but they're only three games above .500 on the road, and the Royals have the third-best home record in baseball.

Royals righty Michael Wacha is 2-0 with an ERA of 1.89 in his last three starts. Wacha is coming off six scoreless innings in Cincinnati, and I expect another strong outing from him here as he is 5-1 with a 3.14 ERA in his home starts.
