The Philadelphia Phillies (34-14) have been red hot in the month of May. Winning 14 of their 17 games, including a 4-game sweep of the Giants, and most recently, a 3-game sweep of the Nationals; the Phillies have the best record in baseball. Aaron Nola pitched 7 innings in their last win while Alec Bohm extended his lead in the RBI department with 5 of them in the last game. They will welcome the defending champion Texas Rangers tonight. At 24-24, the season has not gone exactly as they expected coming off the World Series victory last season. The Rangers have lost 7 of their last 9, including their last game 4-1 to the lowly Angels. Jon Gray (2-1, 2.08) will start for the Rangers in this one. He pitched a scoreless 6.1 innings against the Indians in his last start. He will face the undefeated Ranger Suarez (8-0, 1.37) of the Phillies. Ranger is coming off his shortest out of the season since March 31st . He went just 5 innings but picked up another win while allowing just 2 un-earned runs on 4 hits. Philly is in the top 3 in average, OBP, and runs scored this season. However, more impressively, they are in the top 5 in ERA, WHIP, and batting average against. Those factors make it no shock that they are currently the best team in the league.

Our Philadelphia Phillies vs Texas Rangers Prediction

The Rangers are struggling at home this month, the Phillies are red hot and Ranger Suarez is quietly making an early run at the Cy Young. All that said, we feel obligated to back these Phillies until they lose at least 2 in a row. If the bats get a bit quiet, the pitching has kept them in games. If the pitching falls off for a couple of innings, the bats seemingly pick up the slack and keep them in games. And this team finishes things which is evident in their 10-4 record in 1 run games this season.
