The Philadelphia Phillies and the Milwaukee Brewers will head back to American Family Field on Wednesday for Game 2 of their explosive series.

The Brewers, who are 31-18 in home games against teams from the National League, are booked at -113 moneyline.

Current Form:

The Phillies have 4 of their last 5 games, bumping up their record to 80-58. With less than three weeks left in the regular season, Philadelphia is trying to stave off the 75-64 New York Mets, who are just 5.5 games behind them in the standings. Philadelphia continues to torment teams with its imperious pitching as they have posted a 3.83 over its last five games. The Phillies have also produced stellar numbers in the said stretch, averaging 7.2 runs per game on a .293 BA.

The Brewers, the No.1 team in the NL Central with an 85-54 record, have lost 3 of their last 5 games, including the last two games against Toronto 4-8 and Philadelphia 8-10. Milwaukee has averaged a solid 5.4 runs per game over its previous five games, but its pitching has faltered. Their ERA over this five-game span has increased to 4.70 after conceding 18 runs in two games.

Pitching Matchup: Phillies RHP Aaron Nola (3-7, 6.47 ERA) vs. Brewers LHP Jose Quintana (10-5, 3.69 ERA).
