The Phillies have won the opening two games of the series in impressive fashion. Philadelphia produced a commanding 12-5 victory in the series opener and followed this up with a 9-4 victory yesterday.

The Yankees hold +116 odds of getting the outright victory with the game total set at 7.5.

Phillies Ace Zack Wheeler will be on the mound today and is amid one of his best seasons as a pro. Wheeler holds a 9-3 record with a 2.39 ERA and NL-best 0.875 WHIP. He also leads the National League with 164 strikeouts across his first 128.0 innings pitched. Wheeler has climbed to the -110 favorite on DraftKings Sportsbook to win the NL Cy Young Award, with Paul Skenes right behind him at -105 odds.

Carlos Rodon is expected to get the start for the Yankees and is also off to a strong start to the year. The three-time All-Star enters with a 10-7 record, a 3.10 ERA, and 1.051 WHIP. Rodon has struck out 139 across his 124.2 innings pitched.
