The Phillies have now won nine in ten games, in a highly accessible stretch of the schedule that pitted them against the Pirates, Rockies, and now the Athletics, all last in their division.

In Sacramento, it was a close game against the A's, but the Phillies ultimately managed to take the game 1, 4-3. Wheeler once again led his team. He will be a strong candidate for this year's Cy Young Award. The left-hander dominated the Athletics, pitching 6.2 scoreless innings and striking out eight. By the ninth inning, the score was 1-0 in Philadelphia's favor, but in the top of the ninth, Bohn, Rojas, and Turner, who had already homered in the first inning, drove in three more runs to make it 4-3. In the Athletics' last chance, Kurtz hit a 3-run home run, but the betting total was settled as an underdog, as there were only 7 runs and the bookmakers had set it at 9.5.

Dominican Cristopher Sanchez returns to pitch for the Phillies in Game 2. He has a 4-1 record with a 3.10 ERA and is averaging more than one strikeout per inning this season.

Our Philadelphia Phillies vs Athletics Prediction

With Friday's loss, the A's have lost 10 straight for the first time this season, and now their record in Sacramento has worsened to 0-10. They're two teams on opposing trends. For the Phillies, an additional positive is that Turner's bat is experiencing a resurgence in the second half of May, with four of his last five games allowing more than two hits. Our prediction for Phillies vs Athletics is: Phillies -1.5.

Prediction:

 

Phillies -1.5.
