A pair of top 11 teams in team ERA clash in this one. Philadelphia is on a 22-10-1 run UNDER the total and starter Aaron Nola (2.77 ERA) is throwing well, allowing one run in four of his last five starts. The Phillies are 12-4-1 UNDER the total on the road. The Cubs are fifth in baseball in team ERA (3.59), on a 9-5 run UNDER. Starter Jon Lester (2.09 ERA) has a 0.46 ERA at Wrigley Field this season and has allowed two runs or less in nine of his last 10 starts overall. Lester is also 8-0 with a 1.49 ERA in 10 career meetings with Philadelphia. Chicago is on a 20-10 run UNDER the total at Wrigley Field against winning teams and this shapes up as a pitcher's duel. Take this one to finish UNDER.
