New York at Philadelphia

Philadelphia is a home dog again, cashing yesterday 3-1 as a +120 dog. Philadelphia has won 3 of 5, winning as a dog each time. The Mets have a losing road record and go with southpaw starter John Niese, but the Phillies are 9-4 at home against a left-handed starter. The Mets are 1-4 in their last five road games. Ryan Howard smacked a home run off Matt Harvey and drove in a pair as the Phillies took the opener 3-1 on Friday, and the former MVP is 5-for-7 with a pair of home runs in his last two starts. The Phillies are getting great production from veteran righty Aaron Harang (3-2, 2.35) and the Mets are 13-30 vs. a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. Take the home team.
