The surging Philadelphia Phillies take on an Oakland A's team that has been putting some wins together. Taijuan Walker puts his 6-3 record on the line for the Phillies. (6-3, 4.67) The A's starter JP Sears is just 1-3 this season. (1-3, 4.15). Walker has posted a 4.67 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP but is 3-3 with a 6.75 ERA and a 1.61 WHIP away from home. The A's had won seven in a row before losing their last two games to Tampa Bay. Sears has posted a 4.15 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP. At home, he has posted a 2.57 ERA and a 1.07 WHIP. He has not allowed more than two earned runs in his last five starts. Walker has struggled on the road but has pitched well in his last two starts. I am taking the Phillies even though the A's had a nice run going.
