Philadelphia Phillies

The Phillies have been wreaking havoc on baseball this postseason with an impressive offense hitting .284 and producing 19 home runs, 46 runs scored and 10 stolen bases on 12 attempts. After losing to Atlanta in Game 2 of the NLDS, Philadelphia rallied and proceeded to win four consecutive games, outscoring their opponents 28-6. Kyle Schwarber has played a big role in the offense, hitting three home runs, scoring four runs and driving in three runs over the first two Arizona matchups.

The bullpen has provided solid contributions as well, recording a 1.09 ERA and 1.14 WHIP in the ranges of 24.2 innings. Aaron Nola shined for the night, throwing six scoreless innings, and three relievers followed with three scoreless frames and six strikeouts. Looking ahead, the Phillies hope Suarez will start them off with another strong performance. Over 8.2 innings in two starts against the DBacks, Suarez has only allowed one earned run. While Ketel Marte has had the most success against Suarez with a 6-for-15 record, Evan Longoria is the only Arizona batter to hit a home run off of him.

The Phillies are currently ranked 8th in offense (scoring 4.92 points per game) and 10th in defense (allowing 4.31 points per game). Philadelphia stands at an impressive 88-74 record this season.

Arizona Diamondbacks Analysis

The Arizona Diamondbacks are in a difficult position in their latest series against the potent Philadelphia Phillies offense. Game 1 saw ace Zac Gallen unable to keep the offense at bay, and the Diamondbacks experienced an even worse outing in Game 2. Now, they are looking desperately for a win with rookie pitcher Pfaadt taking the mound. Although Pfaadt may have the advantage of not being known by the Phillies offense, his past performances have not been impressive at Chase Field, as teams have hit .314 against him. Arizona has been unable to get their offense in motion; they have had only eight total hits in the series, with Marte responsible for three of them. The team is hitting .226 in their seven post-season games, and Marte is their only one performing above average with a .333 batting average. #14 for offense (scoring an average of 4.64 per game) #20 for defense (giving up an average of 4.63 points per game) 89-80 overall Philadelphia went 0-3 in their last 3 matchups against Arizona Team batting .226 in seven postseason games Marte hitting .333

Phillies' Unstoppable Offense Makes Them Favorite to Win Against Arizona

The Phillies offense has been unstoppable in the postseason, particularly during the first two games of this series. This leaves Arizona in a difficult position, as they have hit 15 home runs over their last four games. They also scored an average of 8 runs per game in their four-game series against Philadelphia back in June. Although two of the Phils' three wins were by just one run, Philadelphia's offense could prove too much for rookie Pfaadt. Therefore, it is advisable to bet on them with the money line.
