Milwaukee at Philadelphia

It is hard to imagine Cliff Lee with a lone win on the season. He has certainly pitched a lot better than that with an overall 3.72 ERA. In his last three starts he has certainly been even more than that with an ERA of 2.05. Things should change as the Phillies finally have Ryan Howard back in the lineup. Howard has driven in 6 runs in his last three games, and has a major impact on the Phillies’ offense. Zack Greinke has had a decent year, but was scratched from his last start due to fatigue, and has allowed 8 runs in his last eight innings. He is unbeaten at home, but on the road his ERA is an above average 4.41, so the Phillies with a deeper lineup should hold a significant edge both on the mound and at the plate in this one. Milwaukee has never played well here and are now 11-28 in their last 39 in Philly. Play Philadelphia on the runline.
