The Phillies bats are back as they have averaged 6.9 runs per game in their last 10. For the year they have a .259 team batting average, ranking them eighth in the NL and 350 total runs scored, ranking them sixth. Ryan Howard continues to lead the team with 85 hits, 55 RBI’s, and 15 HR’s.
Placido Polanco leads the team with a .318 batting average but is battling an elbow injury that has him in and out of the lineup. He is listed as out for this one.
Cincinnati is 6-4 in their last 10 games and with a record of 42-34 is clinging to a ½ game lead over St. Louis in the NL Central.
The Reds are 25-18 SU at home and 23-14 ATS as the favorite. Against the over/under line they are 37-32-7. The total has stayed under in eight of their previous 11 games.

Joey Votto and Scott Rolen lead the team with 16 HR’s a piece.
