#971/972 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Under 8 Runs – Philadelphia Phillies vs Arizona Diamondbacks, Tuesday at 8:07 PM ET - Merrill Kelly expected to start for the Diamondbacks and he is coming off 6 innings of shutout ball against the Dodgers in the NL Wild Card round. Also, Kelly has allowed 2 earned runs or less in 10 of his last 13 starts! This looks like a pitchers duel because Aaron Nola has great stuff and the veteran Phillies hurler has looked like vintage Nola of late! Nola loves pitching at home and he enters this game already 2-0 in the post-season and he has allowed 2 earned runs or less in 5 straight starts overall. Also, the Phillies bullpen has been great in this post-season and the Dbacks bullpen also has been a pleasant surprise for Arizona fans so far in the playoffs. The reality is, the way these starting pitchers are going, neither team may need much bullpen here either! Overall, in terms of post-season trending so far, even though there were some bigger runs scored yesterday, if you look at all 3 ALCS/NLCS games so far they have averaged just 13 hits per game. So each team averaged about 6 or 7 hits per game. This one will, in all likelihood, be a tight low-scoring battle! Our computer math model projecting 5 to 6 runs here. We are going with the Under in this one.
