The -280 favored Philadelphia Phillies look to move closer to their second straight NL East title and win for the sixth time in eight games tonight when they open another series against the Washington Nationals.
Philadelphia took two of three at Washington last week and then won three of four over the New York Mets to regain a sense of control in the East.
After posting an 0.68 ERA in winning his first five starts for Philadelphia, Cliff Lee has recorded a 9.60 ERA in his last three.
Garrett Mock takes the ball for the Nationals after opposing Lee and Philadelphia last week, when he didn’t receive a decision after allowing four runs and six hits in five innings.
The Nationals have lost each of Mock’s last three starts with the righthander recording a 7.71 ERA. Mock had gone 3-1 with a 3.38 ERA in his previous five outings.
