The Philadelphia Phillies need a win after losing seven of their last 10 games. The Phillies have scored 14 runs in their last three games and three or less runs in five of their last seven games. The Phillies have lost seven of their last eight games when scoring three or less runs. Rhys Hoskins leads the Phillies with 48 hits and 29 RBI while Jean Segura and Alec Bohm have combined for 80 hits and 36 RBI. Aaron Nola gets the ball, and he is 3-4 with a 3.94 ERA and 70 strikeouts this season. Nola is 4-7 with a 3.23 ERA and 97 strikeouts in his career against the Marlins.
The Miami Marlins look for a win after winning six of their last nine games. The Marlins have scored 14 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in six of their last eight games. The Marlins have won seven of their last nine games when scoring four or more runs. Miguel Rojas leads the Marlins with 46 hits and 17 RBI while Jesus Aguilar and Corey Dickerson have combined for 81 hits and 46 RBI. The Miami Marlins didn’t list a starting pitcher when this article was published.
The Phillies are 19-40 in their last 59 road games and 1-4 in their last 5 during game 3 of a series. The Marlins are 4-0 in their last 4 during game 3 of a series and 8-3 in their last 11 home games. The under is 6-2 in Phillies last 8 road games. The under is 7-0 in Marlins last 7 during game 3 of a series. The Phillies are 0-4 in the last 4 meetings in Miami and 1-6 in the last 7 meetings.
The Philadelphia Phillies have a chance in this spot with a solid pitcher on the mound in Aaron Nola. It’s hard to back the Miami Marlins without knowing who is going to take the mound yet. However, the Marlins are the healthier team and have much more chances for offense. The Phillies have been riding the struggle bus with all of these injuries and scoring runs will continue to be difficult. I’ll back the Marlins at home.
