Gameday: Brewers (44-52) at Phillies (43-54)

Milwaukee Brewers (44-52) at Philadelphia Phillies (43-54)

Marco Estrada (0-4, 4.10) vs. Vance Worley (5-6, 3.82)

Time: 1:05, Citizens Bank Park
TV: CSN
Weather: Mostly Sunny, 92
Media: Twitter and Facebook

Another day, another unbelievable comeback.  The Phillies will go for the sweep this afternoon.


Vance Worley’s last start can be summed up by one bad inning. Worley allowed a five-spot in the sixth inning against the San Francisco Giants.  He made one bad mistake to Brandon Crawford, which turned out to be the game. Worley is still having a fine year, and has minimized talks of a sophomore slump.

Marco Estrada spent some of the season in the bullpen.  As a starter this season, he has struggled, going 0-4 with a 4.45 ERA.  He was placed on the disabled list in June, but has been a little better since his return.  In his last four starts, he has had a quality start or better.  His strikeout totals have been off the charts recently, fanning 45 in 24.2 innings.

Your gameday beer: Since the Phils are playing Milwaukee today, we have to go with Miller High Life, which is brewed in Milwaukee. Don’t ever mess with the champagne of beers.

GO PHILLIES!
