NLCS Concludes Tuesday Night With Phillies or Diamondbacks Advancing to World Series

Whichever team advances in the NLCS Tuesday night will head to the World Series and face off against the Texas Rangers.

Line Movement and Betting Volume for the Diamondbacks-Phillies

Arizona extends this series to 7 games following a big win Monday night.  They place Brandon Pfaadt on the mound and Philadelphia counters with Ranger Suarez.  The Phillies are a -155 favorite in this one. The total opened at 8.5 and had dropped down to 8 most books by Tuesday morning with 62% of the action on the UNDER.

79% of the moneyline action was on Philadelphia, down from 90%.  We've seen the number as low as -155 and as high as -180.

Looks Who's Starting

Brandon Pfaadt (3-9, 5.72 ERA) starts for Arizona.

Don't let the regular season record fool you. Pfaadt recorded a career-high nine strikeouts over 5 2/3 shutout innings on Thursday in the Diamondbacks’ win over the Phillies in Game 3 of the NLCS.  Prior to that he fired 4 1/3 shutout innings on Wednesday in the Diamondbacks’ win over the Dodgers in Game 3 of the NLDS.

The last four games he has started have resulted in wins for Arizona.

Ranger Suarez (4-6, 4.18 ERA) will take to the mound for Philadelphia.

In 93 appearances against Suarez, the Diamondbacks have only managed to hit a single home run.  They have 23 hits and 8 RBIs. 

Suarez posted seven strikeouts over 5 1/3 scoreless innings on Thursday in the Phillies’ loss to the Diamondbacks in Game 3 of the NLCS.

Rangers Advance

As noted, the winner of this game goes on to play the Texas Rangers in this year's World Series.

Adolis García powered the Rangers to their first World Series since 2011.

García homered twice and drove in five runs as the Texas Rangers reached their first World Series in 12 years with an 11-4 blowout of the Houston Astros in Game 7 of the AL Championship Series on Monday night.

Corey Seager got the Rangers started with a long homer in a three-run first inning. Nathaniel Lowe also went deep to give Texas — one of six major league teams without a World Series title — its first berth in the Fall Classic since consecutive trips in 2010 and 2011.

It's easy to forget that this is a Rangers team that endured some rough patches back in August that included an 8-game slide and a 4-16 stretch.
