Los Angeles Angels vs. Philadelphia Phillies Prediction

I’m backing the under in this one. Soriano has been a solid option for the Angels when he’s able to pitch on the road and I think he can have a decent enough start here. On the other side, Suarez has been one of the better lefties in all of baseball, and I think that he has another solid outing here in what I think ends up being a low scoring game to end the series. Give me the under here.
