MatchPlug Prediction For Philadelphia Phillies VS Oakland Athletics
The Phillies and Kerkering are the better team in this match. Estes and the Athletics have not shown much promise this season and most of the pitcher’s struggles have been on the road. Oakland are not even good enough to be trusted on the road against a side that is considered to be the best team in baseball.
Prediction: Philadelphia Phillies below the Spread.
