Philadelphia has won four in a row away from home and is 7-0 in interleague games. The defending NL champs are finally clicking on an 11-2 run with the offense Top 10 in slugging. The Phillies are 23-8 against a team with a winning percentage below .400. Oakland is 9-26 at home. After a brief impressive stretch, the A's are back to playing bad baseball losing three in a row by a 16-7 count. The offense is last in the majors in slugging, 26th in on-base percentage, and 28th in runs scored. The pitching is even worse, last in ERA (6.19) and WHIP, along with the worst relief staff in the majors (5.73 ERA). James Kaprielian (6.89 ERA) gets the nod with Oakland 3-9 in his 12 starts. Oakland is 4-26 in day games and 10-42 after a defeat, including 4-24 after a loss by four runs or more. Play Philadelphia as a Max Play.
