D-backs at Phillies
(MLB) Diamondbacks (ARI) vs. Phillies (PHI),
Point Spread: -1.50 | 102.00 Phillies (PHI) (Home)
Result: Win
That was more like it and what we expected from this weekend set on Saturday when the Phils jumped all over Tommy Henry and the D-backs bullpen and Zack Wheeler dominated in a 12-1 romp. Revenge for blowing the NLCS to Arizona after leading 3-1 last October might mean more to the fan base but the Phils had an extra step on Saturday with knowledge that the Braves have been creeping up behind them in the past week. The Run Line price is of interest again today with Christopher Sanchez having been excellent all season at CBP, where he has recorded a 1.84 ERA this term. Expect him to hand off a lead to his bullpen because we are not buying yet on Slade Cecconi, who pitched six shutout innings at Washington in his last start but still has an ERA at 5.90 this season.
