Arizona is making a tremendous second-half run as it did in 2023 on its way to the World Series. The Diamondbacks have won 14 of 17 and have climbed to within three games of first-place Los Angeles in the NL West. The Diamondbacks routed the Phillies 11-1 on Saturday as Jack McCarthy hit two two-run homers. Merrill Kelly will make his first appearance since April 23 when he went on the injured list with a right shoulder strain. Kelly allowed no more than two runs in his first four outings this season. Philadelphia has lost four of Christopher Sanchez's past five starts as he hasn't gotten much run support. Arizona has won four straight as an underdog and the Phillies are 1-6 with Sanchez as a road favorite of -110 to -150 and he is 3-0-1 UNDER his past four road starts versus teams with winning records. Seven of the past nine meetings have gone UNDER. Take the Diamondbacks and the UNDER.
