The Phillies have lost three straight and are 5-5 in last 10. The Phillies are 34-43 on the road and vs. 58-49 RHPs.

Atlanta’s (85-72) magic number to clinch the NL for a fourth consecutive season is down to one.  

The Braves have won five straight and are 9-1 in last 10. Atlanta is 39-37 at home and 62-54 against RHPs.

Anderson has alternated good and bad outings over the last six five starts. The 23-year-old limited Pittsburgh to just two hits and one run over 7 innings while striking out eight and walking one. Anderson is 2-0 with a 4.79 ERA and a .224 OBA in September.
