(MLB) Phillies (PHI) vs. Dodgers (LAD),
Money Line: -112.00 Dodgers (LAD) (Home)
Result: Loss
Philadelphia has the 2nd worst record in MLB since the All-Star Break and not playing well. The Phillies Sanchez looks like a pitcher that is approaching his career-high in innings pitched. The Phillies have lost each of the lefty's last four starts and he has given up three of the just four home runs he's allowed all season in that stretch.
I don't expect Kershaw to have the same kind of command issues he had in his second start in this start. Kershaw failed to strikeout a batter after punching out six in his first start. Kershaw will get close to that K total on Tuesday night and ride the Dodgers' tough pen to a win in this one once again with Freddie Freeman back in their lineup.
