Best Bet - Philadelphia Phillies -175
(MLB) Philadelphia vs. Cincinnati,
Money Line: -175.00 Philadelphia (Away)
Result: Win
We went this exact route Monday and it paid off as the Phillies smacked around Mike Minor before holding on for a 4-3 victory over the Reds in the opening game of this set. The pitching matchup favors the visitors again here as Kyle Gibson gets the call for Philadelphia while the Reds counter with T.J. Zeuch. Gibson has gone 2-1 with a 2.70 ERA in his last three starts and in the loss, he turned in a quality start, spinning six innings while allowing three runs (two earned) on six hits with two walks and three strikeouts against Miami. The problem for him was that the Phillies didn't score in a 3-0 loss. Zeuch was smoked for six runs on six hits with two walks, four strikeouts and two hit batters in his season debut last week against the Mets. It's hard to be inspired by him facing another explosive offensive lineup like the Phillies. Back the Phillies to put together back-to-back wins.
