Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Philadelphia Phillies NLCS Game-2 Pick…The Philadelphia Phillies took an important step to a World Series berth by getting past Derrick Lowe and the Los Angels Dodgers in Game-1 of the National League Championship Series on Thursday. Today, the Phillies look to right hander Brett Myers to pitch the team to a two-game lead in the best-of-seven games series. The Dodgers will pin their hopes on right hander Chad Billingsley to even things up at 1-1 before the teams head off to Los Angeles for games 3-5.
Oddsmakers at online sportsbook SBGglobal.com list the Dodgers with Billingsley as the starter as slight -108 money line favorites for Game-2 with an 8 1/2 total. The Phillies are getting -108 money line odds as a home underdog.
Billingsley shut down the Cubs for six scoreless innings and got the win in Game 2 of the National League Division Series. Billingsley finally wavered in the seventh, but with seven strikeouts and one walk in front of a hostile Wrigley Field crowd, he was pretty convincing as the Dodgers' future ace. That experience should serve him well as a prep for this assignment at Citizens Bank Park, where he had control problems in his only start this year, walking five while allowing three runs in six innings of a 5-0 loss on Aug. 25.
Myers held the Brewers to two runs on two hits in seven innings his last time out in the NLDS Game-2. The Phils will be hoping for more of the same against the Dodgers Friday night. He is 1-1 against L.A. this season with a 1.93 ERA.
Chase Utley and Pat Burrell hit home runs in the sixth inning of the Phillies' 3-2 win over the Dodgers in Game 1 of the NLCS on Thursday, as -145 favorites. The five runs went UNDER the posted over/under (7.5).
Utley finished 2-for-4 with a two-run dinger for the Phillies. Cole Hamels tossed seven innings for the win, allowing two runs off six hits.
Manny Ramirez had two hits and drove in one run for the Dodgers, who were +130 underdogs in that game. Derek Lowe gave up three runs off six hits over 5 1-3 innings in the loss.
