(MLB) Philadelphia vs. Cincinnati, 08/16/2022 6:40 PM, Score: 11 - 4
Point Spread: -1.50 | -115.00 Philadelphia (Away)
Result: Win
Here are several good reasons to take the Phillies on the run line today. Their starter Gibson has been a standout lately, offering length and consistency, as well as very low runs allowed. The Phillies’ offense is potent, eighth in the league at the moment, and face a pitcher in the Reds’ Zeuch who is not ready for prime time, with a 13.50 ERA after his first 4 inning start. After a decent run, the Reds’ offense has sunk back into the league depths lately. They have won just 3 of 10. The Phillies are hot, but just lost series vs. the Mets and need to make up ground in this series. Should Gibson need support, the Phillies’ bullpen has been lights out. Take the Phillies at -1 ½.
