00:05Today, it's Ranger Suarez against Reynaldo Lopez, Philadelphia, a minus 138 home money line favorite.

00:12What do you like in game number two?

00:14I think the Phillies can win this game again.

00:16I took the Phillies yesterday to minus 150 price and it was like, oh boy, it looks like an idiot here early on.

00:21But they end up getting the win in that baseball game, make me look a little bit smarter.

00:24But let's flip it over to today because it's always about the starting pitching matchups.

00:27I think we've got a pretty good one here.

00:29You got Ranger Suarez on the mound here for the Philadelphia Phillies.

00:32Hasn't had much action over the past 30 days because of that IL stint.

00:35But his return back to Major League Baseball was good.

00:37His season, 500 batters that he's faced, is very good.

00:40ISIL power, number 116, weighted on base percentage, 273.

00:44They all check out against an offense, technically, with Atlanta that isn't very good.

00:48But also, Reynaldo Lopez on the other side, his last 60 days, he has had some injury issues to worry about.

00:5336 and a third innings pitch, but a stellar ERA at 2.72.

00:57This is a playoff-type atmosphere down here at the bank tonight, and I expected to go that route.

01:02Do I think the Phillies win? Yes.

01:03But I don't think we see nine runs in this game, Ben.

01:06I'm more apt to take the under today between these two ball clubs.
