The Phillies defeated Miami by a score of 6-2 on Tuesday, but they had lost six straight previously. I expect Philly to go back to it's losing ways here in Game 2 at Marlins Park with a struggling rookie pitcher on the mound.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - The Phillies hand the ball to David Buchanan, who has been crushed in his last four starts. Buchanan (2-9, 8.49 ERA) has given up 24 runs on 36 hits over just 15 innings in four straight losses. The Marlins counter with rookie left-hander Adam Conley, who has won four straight. Conley (4-1, 4.22 ERA) tossed seven scoreless innings in a win over the Mets in New York in his last start.

2. Batter vs. Pitcher - Christian Yelich is batting .444 over the last seven days, and he's 2-for-4 lifetime versus Buchanan.

3. X-Factor - The Phillies are just 1-11 in Buchanan's last 12 starts on the road.

Selection: This is a play on the Miami Marlins (6*)
