Phillies vs Diamondbacks Free Pick June 23, 2017
The Phillies ended a five game losing skid by winning the final game of a home series versus St. Louis Thursday, and now they head out on the road for four games in Arizona this weekend. They will send a rookie to the mound in Game 1, and this could be a blowout.
Mark Leiter Jr. will toe the slab for Philly, and he’s been working out of the bullpen in his first season in the majors. He’s allowed 12 runs on 11 hits and a whopping 14 walks in 19 innings of work.
The D’Backs will hand the ball to Patrick Corbin, who has been solid at home. Corbin (6-6, 5.19 ERA) allowed two earned runs on five hits, striking out six in six innings in a win at Philly his last time out. He’s 5-1 with a 3.51 ERA in eight starts at Chase Field in 2017.
Only the Padres have scored fewer runs this year than Philadelphia. The Phillies have also lost seven of their last 10 road games versus a left-handed starter.
Take ARI.
