San Diego Padres vs. Philadelphia Phillies
Even though not many people are talking about the Padres having a chance at the playoffs they still hold one of the best records in the League at 32-22. Also they are going against the Phillies who have really struggled as of late to score runs. The Padres are sending out Jon Garland in this one and he has been sensational all year with a 2.15 ERA and a 6-2 record. Garland should gives the struggling Phillies batters fits as he goes for another quality start. Even though the Padres don't have a great offense I still give them a good chance at scoring runs against old Jamie Moyer who has had a better than expected year with a 4.26 ERA and a 5-5 record. Halladay had to pitch out of a lot of tough situations on Friday and I don't think Moyer will be able to do the same. Whenever the third best ERA pitcher in the leagues team is an underdog it is usually a good idea to take that team and I like Garland and the Padres in this one.
San Diego +130
