MLB Baseball Betting: Phillies at Nationals

The Philadelphia Phillies will try to end their season-high five-game road slide tonight when they send Pedro Martinez to the mound as they look to continue their domination of the Washington Nationals.

The -158 favored Phillies will be looking forward to starting this three-game set. They have won seven straight over Washington and lead the season series 10-2.

The Phillies are 5-0 in Martinez's starts. The righthander is 4-3 with a 2.94 ERA in eight career starts against the Nationals franchise.

Philadelphia has also won its last six games in which it has faced John Lannan, who will start today for the Nationals. The lefthander is 0-5 with a 5.89 ERA in seven career outings against the Phillies.

Lannan, 5-1 with a 2.62 ERA at home, is 0-1 with a 7.97 ERA in his last four starts.

The Phillies are 5-1 at Nationals Park this year.
