Philadelphia Phillies probable pitchers & starting lineups vs. Los Angeles Angels, May 1
The lineups are set as Zack Wheeler and the Phillies try to win their sixth series of the season.
The Philadelphia Phillies (20-11) almost let Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels (11-19) get away. Thanks to the ninth-inning heroics of Nick Castellanos and Johan Rojas, the Phillies won 7-5 and secured their 20th victory of the season.
It's the most wins in April in franchise history, and they become the first team in MLB to reach the 20-win mark this season. Despite having the most wins, they still sit 0.5 games behind the NL East-leading Braves (19-9) coming into action today.
The Phillies will attempt to secure their sixth series of the season and their 13th win in their last 16 games in this afternoon's rubber match with the Angels.
