Predicted Outcome
This matchup favors Philadelphia in nearly every respect: Walker’s steady 3.82 ERA outmatches Kremer’s higher ERA (~4.90), and the Phillies’ lineup—led by Schwarber, Harper and Turner—offers more consistent power. Note that both teams have been trending toward high-scoring games, but Philadelphia’s home stand and head‑to‑head edge suggest they’ll control late innings. Expect Phillies to win by two or more runs, likely pushing this game over 9.5 total runs.
