The Seattle Mariners and the Philadelphia Phillies will play game two of their three-game series this Wednesday from Citizens Bank Park. Seattle took game one after holding off a late rally from Philly, 5-3. Philly struck back last night with a late one-run victory, 6-5.
Mariners Betting Preview
Seattle enters at 11-13 after falling to Philadelphia. The Mariners led for most of the contest, but they let the Phillies slip away late, and they’ll look to bounce back here. The Seattle offense is scoring 4.47 runs per game, while batting .227, with a .303 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 3.70 ERA, with a 1.24 WHIP. Jarred Kelenic recorded three RBI in the game one win, and he leads Seattle in batting (.325). Ty France is hit hitless in Philly, but he’s first on the team in runs (17) and RBI (15).
George Kirby (2-1, 3.57 ERA, 17 Ks) will start for Seattle. The second-year pitcher has cleaned up a messy debut with three straight quality starts, while allowing just five earned runs combined. Kirby struck over five in six full innings versus St. Louis in his last outing to earn his second win of the season.
Phillies Betting Preview
Philadelphia moved to 12-13 after the win over Seattle. The Phillies got back in the win column to win their fourth out of five, and it looks like they’ve cleaned up a slow start. The Philadelphia offense is scoring 4.45 runs per game, while batting .277, with a .336 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 4.78 ERA, with a 1.37 WHIP. Brandon Marsh has recorded a hit in nine of the last ten games, and he leads the Phillies in batting (.351). Alec Bohm has produced a RBI in three straight games, and he’s first on the team in RBI (19).
Matt Strahm (1-2, 3.00 ERA, 27 Ks) gets the call for Philadelphia. The eighth-year lefty pitched well despite suffering the losing decision last week versus Colorado. Strahm fanned eleven hitters in 5 ⅓ innings, but failed to receive the proper run support, and he’ll look to get back into the win column this Thursday.
Seattle vs Philadelphia Trends
Seattle is 11-13 against the spread this season, with a 12-10-1 over/under record. Philadelphia is 9-16 ATS this year, with a 11-13 O/U record.
Corey's Free Pick
Philadelphia and Seattle had a great game yesterday, and I think the host close this set strong. The Phillies are finding their stride at the plate, and they’ve won their last three series finales. The Over should be in play with neither pitcher presenting a shutdown threat, but back the Phillies this Thursday.
