Philadelphia is trying to hang on to a playoff spot after losing 2-1 to the Cubs on Tuesday. Aaron Nola will look to duplicate his last start when he pitched six shutout innings on four hits in a 9-1 victory over Atlanta on Friday. Nola has a 3.02 ERA on the road this season and September has been his best month overall as he has allowed five runs in 21 2/3 innings. Hayden Wesneski will make his third start for Chicago. The Phillies still have won 12 of 15 versus NL Central teams and the Cubs are 26-56 their past 82 games after scoring two or fewer runs their previous game. The Phillies have stayed UNDER five of their past seven road games and the Cubs are 14-5 UNDER their past 19 games and 23-8-3 UNDER their past 34 home games. Most importantly, the forecast is for 11 mph winds blowing in from center field. Take the Phillies and the UNDER.
