The Phillies are coming into this game playing very well as they have a 2-0 lead in this series and they have won their last 4 straight as well as 7 of their 8 playoff games this year. They outscored the Diamondbacks 15-3 in the first 2 games of this series and they have a much stronger offense that has been heating up in these games. The Diamondbacks swept the Dodgers in the last round but their offense has not been great in those as they scored 4 runs in 2 of their wins and have not scored more than 4 runs in any of their last 4 games. The Phillies have also had a much better pitching staff all season and in their recent games as they have not allowed more than 3 runs in a game in their last 4 games. Ranger Suárez is starting for the Phillies here and he is 4-6 with a 4.18 ERA this season. He has been pitching very well recently as he allowed 1 earned run or less in his 2 starts against the Braves in the last round but he has also been great in the playoffs in his 2 year career as he has made 7 playoff starts going back to last season and has not allowed more than 1 earned run in any of them. Brandon Pfaadt is starting for the Diamondbacks and he is 3-9 with a 5.72 ERA this season. He pitched well in his last start against the Dodgers as he did not allow a run but he also pitched just 4 innings and did allow 3 earned runs in less than 3 innings pitched against the Brewers in his 1st playoff start. Pfaadt is also in his rookie season still so he is going to make mistakes against a lineup like the Phillies here and he is not going to pitch deep either which will give the Phillies an opportunity to beat up on the Diamondbacks bullpen. The Phillies will win this game and go up 3-0 in the series.
