Philadelphia goes for its fifth consecutive win after defeating the Rangers 5-2 on Tuesday with Bryce Harper hitting his 11th homer of the seaso. The Phillies have won 27 of 33 games. Texas continues to suffer a World Series hangover as it has lost eight of 10. The Rangers still are under .500 and they are just 12-12 on the road while the Phillies are 20-8 at home. The bullpen has been a large part of the problem for Texas with a league-worst 5.15 ERA and only nine saves. Taijuan Walker starts for Philadelphia and his teams are 17-5 when he starts against teams with losing records the past two seasons, going 16-4 overall in night games. Walker's teams are 19-3 when he starts at home with a posted total of 9 to 9.5. Dane Dunning will come off the injured list and make his first start since May 4 for the Rangers, who have lost five straight as underdogs. Take the Phillies.
