- Analysis
- The Phillies are coming into this game with a 13-13 record this season and they have been awful in their recent games. They are coming off of a 4-0 loss to the Cubs in the 1st game of this series and they have lost their last 5 straight games now, but they are going to be hungry to bounce back here. They are going up against a Cubs team that is 17-10 this season and they have been playing very well in their recent games. They have won their last 3 straight as well as 5 of their last 6 games and they have been scoring a lot of runs in these games, but they have also been allowing a lot of runs in those games as well. Jesús Luzardo is starting for the Phillies in this game and he is 2-0 with a 2.08 ERA this season. He has allowed just 1 earned run or less in 3 of his last 4 starts and he has not allowed more than 3 earned runs in any of his 5 starts this year. He has made 2 road starts this season and has not allowed more than 2 earned runs in either of those starts, pitching at least 5 innings in both. His team has won 3 of the 5 games he started in this season and their offense has been much better in his last 2 starts, scoring at least 5 runs in each of those. Luzardo has been their best starter to start the season so he is going to go deep in this game and give the Phillies a good chance to get a much needed bounce back win here. Ben Brown is starting for the Cubs in this game and he is 2-1 with a 4.57 ERA this season. He has been very good in his last 2 starts as he has only allowed 1 earned run total, but he did allow at least 3 runs in each of his 3 starts prior to these last 2. He has not been pitching deep into his starts either, going 4 innings or less in 3 of his 5 starts this year. He has also allowed at least 3 runs in 2 of his 3 home starts this season, his worst start of the season coming there as he allowed 5 earned runs in 4 innings against the Padres. He does not have a great bullpen to back him up either so the Phillies are going to get scoring opportunities in this game and Luzardo will be able to lead them to victory with a good performance. The Phillies will win this game.
