Phillies at Mets
(MLB) Phillies (PHI) vs. Mets (NYM),
Money Line: -110.00 Phillies (PHI) (Away)
Result: Loss
Playoff experience ought to count for something; if so, good news for the Phils and Aaron Nola, as the Game 3 starter has plenty of playoff experience from recent seasons, and at various times steadying himself some bumpy efforts. One of those did come vs. the Mets on September 13, when battered for six runs and six hits in just 4 1/3 IP of an 11-3 loss, but Nola bounced back to handcuff the Brewers his next start before getting wins in his two subsequent trips to the mound. Meanwhile, recent form of Mets starter Sean Manaea has been a bit shaky, allowing eight runs (seven earned) across just 8 2/3 IP in his last two starts, which equates to a 7.27 ERA. The Phils rallied on Sunday to even the series, winning in dramatic in the ninth inning on a Nick Castellanos single, and with proven postseason weapons like Bryce Harper still in the mix, the Phils' playoff experience ought to come in handy in October.
