Phillies vs Rangers: The Phillies kept the good vibes going at the Bank last night with a huge win over the Texas Rangers. Ranger Suarez amassed 10 strikeouts through 7 innings, completely silencing the defending Champions, and now the Phillies have an opportunity to chase a sweep. The next step in that journey takes place tonight in Game 2 of the series.

Taijuan Walker (3-0, 4.51 ERA) vs Dane Dunning (3-2, 4.10 ERA)
After last night’s sensational win, the Phillies will send Taijuan Walker to the mound. He’s gone at least 6 innings in each of his 3 starts but has allowed 5+ hits on each occasion. With that said, he’s only allowed a combined 4 runs over his last 2, although his most recent outing against the Mets (4 hits allowed in 3 innings) was disappointing. He faces a top-10 Rangers offense that was still able to find some traction against a dominant Ranger Suarez, so keeping them quiet won’t be easy.
Across from Walker will be Dane Dunning, who is yet to allow more than 5 hits in a game this season. While he has surrendered minimal runs in every outing and like Suarez, had a 10-strikeout night not too long ago, Dunning hasn’t made a start in 2 weeks due to a minor knock, which could afford the Phillies’ offense some breathing room.
The Phillies are favored to win game 2 of this series following last night’s huge win, but the pitching matchup certainly opens things up for both offenses. Our bet on the UNDER cashed yesterday, so I’m inverting that with the OVER today. I actually like the parlay of the Phillies to win outright and the OVER 9.5 to cash, at a price of +225.
Betting pick: OVER 10 runs or parlay with Phillies to win outright.
Alec Bohm has become an RBI machine this season, posting 14 up to this point. He’s also riding a 7-game hitting streak and leads the Phillies in batting average this season. I like him to extend that good run with another RBI at +130.
