Chicago at Philadelphia

The Phillies have gotten to the point where they have to almost be considered an automatic play-on right now. They have now won 13 of their last 14, which includes nine straight wins. The Phillies have been dominated with both their bats and their pitching staff as they have allowed just two runs or less in 10 of the 14 games, and one run or less in six of the 14, while the offense has exploded for 7.2 runs per game. Rich Harden is a top-of-the-staff pitcher for the Cubs, but he has had a bad season start to finish, and has been giving up the longball with high frequency. The Cubs are just 16-41 as a dog of +110 to +150 in their last 57, so you have to go with the scorching hot Phillies here.
