The Philadelphia Phillies are off and running to a 7-2 start. The offense exploded for 43 runs in their six-game home stand, but the road has shown two of their three games producing just 3 runs. The Phillies’ staff is allowing less than 4 runs per game, and the light-hitting Nationals may be hard pressed to get to 4 in this one. Livan Hernandez seems to be at his best in these anticipated lower-scoring games, as he has led the Nats to a 44-19-3 mark to the UNDER in his last 66 starts with a total set at 7 to 8.5. He is also 7-3-1 to the UNDER in his career vs. the Phillies. The play is on the UNDER in this one.
