Philadelphia Phillies vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction 

Both of these pitchers this season have been decent, but they are also both coming off games where they struggled. Stone in his last start gave up five runs, and he’s going to really struggle here. The Philly’s offense is going to run up the score, and they are going to cruise. The Dodgers are also going to tee off on Tyler Phillips, and this game is going to go over the total. Back the over to cash.
