Philadelphia at Atlanta

Philadelphia is 18-41 on the road and this is the end of an eight-game road trek (2-5 on the trip). Philadelphia's offense is #24 in on-base percentage, #29 in runs. The Phillies go with Jerad Eickhoff, who is winless on the road (0-5) with a 5.26 ERA. Philadelphia is on a 19-50 run on the road, including 8-23 away against a team with a losing record. They are also 7-22 when Eickhoff starts on the road and the team is 11-30 as an underdog of +125 to +175 this season. Atlanta is home for the eighth straight contest, a nice homestand that included a 5-3 win over the red-hot Dodgers as a +155 dog and back-to-back wins over Miami. They step way down in competition for this one. Back Atlanta.
