Philadelphia stayed hot with its fourth straight win, 6-4 over the Angels on Monday. Trea Turner homered twice and Bryce Harper hit a two-run blast for the Phillies, who sit comfortably atop the NL wild-card standings. Los Angeles is essentially out of the playoff picture, having lost its sixth in eight games, and the Angels are 31-36 on the road. Tyler Anderson has a 5.35 ERA and 1.53 WHIP for the Angels and he has been pummeled for 16 runs (13 earned) on 15 hits his past 13 1/3 innings and the Angels have lost his past four starts. Mike Lorenzen has some extra rest as he struggled a bit after pitching a no-hitter on Aug. 9. He gave up four runs in 5 2/3 innings against San Francisco on Wednesday, but he still has a 1.12 WHIP on the season, including with Detroit. Philadelphia has won all four meetings the past two seasons. Take the Phillies as a Max Play.
