The Philadelphia Phillies struggled to generate runs a year ago, as they were the third worst team in generating runs. They have gotten off to a good start this season by generating 5 runs per game through their first seven. Upstart Milwaukee is 4-0 on the road to open the 2014 season, but this is a flawed team, and those numbers are not indicative of what to expect going forward. Their fast start has a negative impact on the line if you like them in this game. Roberto Hernandez got off to a good start in a Philly uniform winning his first outing, and the Brewers have seen him for all of 1 inning over his career, so Hernandez should have an edge. The Brewers have struggled in Philly where they own a dismal 17-35 record in their last 52 played here. The play is on Philadelphia in this one.
