The Philadelphia Phillies set their sight on their fifth win in six games as they duke it out with the Oakland Athletics on Sunday at Citizens Bank Park. The Phillies have won six of their last 10 games, a stretch highlighted by a 3-0 sweep of the Los Angeles Dodgers. During this 10-game schedule, Philadelphia has batted .267 with 5.0 runs per game while allowing a 4.76 ERA. At 62-33, the Phillies now hold a nine-game lead over the 52-42 Atlanta Braves at the top of the NL East standings. The Athletics have played better baseball in the last 10 games, going 5-5 while producing 6.1 runs pm .253 BA and a 5.07 ERA. Oakland is dead last in their division at 36-71, but salvaging another win against arguably the best team in the MLB will boost up their confidence moving forward.

Pitchers Matchup: Athletics RHP Joey Estes (3-4, 5.53 ERA with 44 strikeouts) vs. Phillies RHP Orion Kerkering (2-1, 1.30 with 6 strikeouts).
