Chicago had lost five straight before beating the Phillies 10-1 on Friday and the Cubs will face Aaron Nola today and he has given the Phillies six or seven solid innings almost every outing this season. Current Chicago hitters are batting .186 with just four home runs in 118 at-bats against Nola with an on-base percentage of .226. The Cubs will send Jameson Taillon to the mound and they have lost all six of his appearances this season and he has allowed 18 earned runs on 30 hits with a .297 opponent batting average in 24 1/3 innings. The Cubs have the second-fewest saves in the majors with five. Philadelphia has won 23 of 32 home games versus teams with losing records and the Cubs still are only 9-13 on the road this year. Take the Phillies as a Max Play.
