Result: Win
The Philadelphia Phillies are a solid 21-11 home at Citizens Bank Park this season and they're 7-1 in their last 8 vs. a team with a losing record.

Philly right-hander Nick Pivetta (3-1, 6.14 ERA) had a poor start to the season and was sent down to the minors for a period, but he has allowed just three runs on six hits over 11 innings since being recalled to the big leagues. He fanned nine through six scoreless innings of three-hit ball at LA Dodgers last time out. "It's nice to get back to the pitcher that I am," Pivetta told reporters. "I think there's still room for improvement. There's always more. Yes, I had a good outing, but it's the consistency of the baseball game that I need to prove to everybody. To my teammates, this coaching staff, to the fans. And that's what it's going to take to move forward."

Reds right-hander Tanner Roark (4-4, 3.47 ERA) is 3-6 with a 5.30 ERA in his career at Citizens Bank Park and he gave up six hits and four runs in six innings in a 5-2 loss to the Washington Nationals last time out. Roark will have to be careful with hot-hitting Jay Bruce has four homers in as many games since joining the Phillies from Seattle.
