The Phillies look to sweep the Chicago Cubs and extend their winning streak to 11 consecutive games.
Jamie Moyer is coming off one of his best outings of the season, shuting down the Marlins. Moyer will be playing against the team he debuted with in 1987. In six career starts against the Cubs, he is 3-0 with a 4.19 ERA.
Zambrano has a 2.25 ERA in his last four starts. Not only can he pitch, but he can hit. Since 2005, Zambrano leads all Major League pitchers with 16 HR and 43 RBI.
For the afternoon game we’re going with an easy drinker with a light body. The Amber is one of the many interesting beers brewed by the Abita Brewery of New Orleans. It has a copper color much like its bottle with a clear flavor of toasted caramel malts. The beer is brewed in the Marzen / Oktoberfest style so enjoy some bratwurst this afternoon. – By Brian
GO PHILLIES!
