Philadelphia goes for the sweep of the fading Mets after a 5-3 win on Saturday when Brad Miller homered twice, and the Phillies held on after New York hit three consecutive homers in the ninth. Zack Wheeler is 9-6 with a 2.57 ERA, and the Phillies have won seven of his past 10 starts. Wheeler has a .202 opponent batting average at home, and he has allowed seven runs in 20 1/3 innings versus the Mets this season. Taijuan Walker has been awful since the All-Star break, giving up 20 earned runs in only 15 innings, and the Mets have lost his last three starts. New York has scored only seven runs the first three games of this series, and they are 7-16 the past 23 meetings at Philadelphia. Play the Phillies.
