Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Philadelphia Phillies Prediction
I’m on the over in this one. Blake Snell was far less effective on the road this season as his opponent’s batting average is 100 percentage points higher away from Dodger Stadium than it was at home, but I’m also not trusting Jesus Luzardo, who did have an ERA over four at home this season and despite tossing seven plus innings in each of his last three starts of the season, he did give up four runs in two of those three outings as well. These were two teams that hit left-handed pitching really well in the month of September, and I think that continues here as we get a high-scoring matchup. Give me the over here.
