After a convincing 6-1 win and lights out pitching by Cliff Lee, the Phillies are hoping to go back to Citizens Bank Park 2-0 as right handed pitcher Pedro Martinez faces RHP A.J. Burnett. The Yankees are -200 home favorites and the Phillies are +180 road dogs at Bo Dog Sportsbook. The over under is set at 9 for tonights 7:57 PM EST game.
Martinez is pitching a 3.14 ERA and Burnett is at 4.07 ERA. The last time AJ Burnett pitched against the Phillies back in 5/22/09 the Yankees lost 7-3. Brett Myers was pitching for the Phillies. Martinez has lost his last 3 against the Yankees dating back to 2005.
The Yankees made some lineup changes tonight, catcher Jose Molina takes the place of Jorge Posada, and will bat 9th. Jerry Hairston replaces Nick Swisher. The Yankees have super closer Mariano Rivera to finish up, considering all goes well with A.J. Burnett on the mound.
