About Today's Game
Both of these teams have the talent to compete for a championship this season. They are a very equal matchup, as can be seen from last night's 3-2 thriller.
For the Phillies, veteran starting pitcher Aaron Nola will get the nod on the mound. He has gone 11-6 this season to go along with a 3.45 ERA, a 1.18 WHIP, a 3.6 K/BB ratio, and 159.1 innings pitched in 26 starts.
Houston, on the other hand, will be starting veteran star Justin Verlander. He has struggled with injury issues this season, but has started in 11 games. Verlander has compiled a 3-3 record to go along with a 3.92 ERA, a 1.19 WHIP, a 3.2 K/BB ratio, and 62.0 innings pitched.
Both pitchers are more than capable of shutting down an opposing lineup. It will be interesting to see which offense comes out on top.
