Atlanta at Philadelphia

The Philadelphia Phillies have managed to play just ten games due to Covid issues. This will be game 18 for Atlanta who is of to an 11-6 start. The Braves come off yesterday's doubleheader sweep of Philadelphia, as the Phillies try and salvage game four. Sean Newcomb has made three starts, and despite the 11-6 Atlanta reecord Newcomb has yet to reecord his first win and his ERA stands at 6.51. Aaron Nola found something in his last start and pitched a gem vs. the hard-hitting Yankees. He worked six innings allowing a run while striking out 12 hitters. I like the edge on the mound here, so back Philadelphia for the W.
