The Phillies have received strong pitching performances in back to back games from their 2 aces, Roy Halladay and Cole Hamels. The Phillies are 50-46 SU this season, 6.5 games behind the Atlanta Braves in the National League East division. Philadelphia is -9.12 and -8.29 units both SU and on the RL this year.
