The Los Angeles Angels and Philadelphia Phillies face off on Sunday in an MLB showdown at Citizens Bank Park. The Phillies have won the first two games of this series. On Saturday, Philadelphia won 7-2.
The Angels sit with a 27-27 record overall and they have been a big disappointment the last week. The Angels have lost ten games in a row and now there are a ton of questions about where this team goes from here. The Angels are averaging 4.44 runs per game while giving up 4.20 runs per game. Shohei Ohtani is having a big season hitting 11 home runs and driving in 32 RBIs.
On the other side of this matchup is the Philadelphia Phillies who sit with a 23-29 record overall but they have won three games in a row. Over the last three games, the Phillies have scored 23 runs and they are going to need to get a strong offense again in this game. Bryce Harper has hit 12 home runs and 36 RBIs.
On the mound for the Angels will be Patrick Sandoval who sits with a 3-1 record and an ERA of 2.70. In his last start against the Toronto Blue Jays, he went three innings giving up five hits and six runs.
On the mound for the Philadelphia Phillies will be Kyle Gibson who sits with a 3-2 record and an ERA of 3.83. In his last start against the San Francisco Giants, he went six innings giving up three hits and two runs.
The Angels are 0-7 in their last seven road games. The Angels are 0-4 in Sandoval’s last four interleague games. The under is 5-0 in Gibson’s last five starts during Game 3 of a series. The over is 5-0 in the Angels last five interleague road games against a right-handed start.
Sandoval really struggled in his last start, and this Angels team doesn’t have much confidence at all heading into this game. Look for Gibson to give up two runs or less again and the Phillies will get the job done here. Back the Phillies on the money line.
