10* NLDS TOTAL OF YEAR: STILL HOT 13-8 MLB RUN!
(MLB) Phillies (PHI) vs. Mets (NYM),
Total: 7.50 | -120.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is a 10* NLDS TOY on the UNDER Phillies/Mets.

The Mets have seen the total go OVER the number in four of their five playoff games this year, including in both in the NLDS. I'm finally expecting a "duel" here in Game 3 though in The Big Apple.

Dating to the regular season, the Phillies have seen the total go OVER in seven straight now.

With the shift in venue, I say we finally see a lower-scoring defensive battle.

The Phillies turn to Aaron Nola (14-8, 3.57 ERA), who finished the regular season off back-to-back wins and who enters on plenty of rest.

The home side counters with Sean Manaea (12-6, 3.47), who enters on five days rest after starting Game 2 of the NL Wildcard. Manaea looked sharp by allowing two runs over five innings.

The situation and the numbers/trends all point to the UNDER as the correct call in this one.

Good luck, NP
