Prediction

The Phillies were dominated by Zac Gallen who pitched 7 scoreless innings and the Dbacks offense destroyed AAron Nola. For this game Alex Cobb will take the mound for the Giants who has been solid lately allowing only 1 run in each of his last 2 starts. Gibson will start for the Phillies who has been up and down this season but the Phillies have won in 6 of his last 7 starts. Cobb has been solid lately so we get good value with the Giants.
