Los Angeles Dodgers vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction
I’m looking at the over in this spot. Lauer has been hittable with a 4.81 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, and a .245 allowed batting average. Nola hasn’t been himself this season with a 5.68 ERA, 1.45 WHIP, and a .278 allowed batting average. In 44.1 innings at home, Nola has a 6.50 ERA and a .312 allowed batting average. Two talented lineups and two shaky pitchers. I expect some fireworks. Give me the over in this series finale.
