Phillies Game Today: Phillies vs Brewers Lineup, Odds, Prediction, Pick, Pitcher, TV Channel for September 8
After shutting the Brewers out in the first game of the series, the Phillies found themselves shut out by the Brewers in the second game on Tuesday night.
Peak Phillies behavior.
The Phils are 71-67 on the season, 2 1/2 games behind the Atlanta Braves in the NL East. It feels like every time the Phillies get close to matching the Braves, they choke, and with three weeks of regular-season baseball remaining, time is running out.

Phillies Pitcher Today: Kyle Gibson
Kyle Gibson has been the stabilizing force the Phillies rotation needed, though his 4.46 ERA since joining the team doesn’t exactly represent that.
His most recent start was an eight-earned-run disaster, which brought his Phillies ERA up from 3.16. Ouch.
Prior to that, he had allowed two earned runs or less in four of six starts since being traded. His hit, home run, and walk rates are all lower than last season, so hopefully he can bounce back from last week’s debacle, though it is extremely Phillies of him to struggle in Miami.
Unfortunately, in six career starts against the Brew Crew, he has a 5.66 ERA over 35 innings.
Gibson is going up against Freddy Peralta, who has a 2.70 ERA over 24 games this year. However, in three games against the Phillies over his career, he has a 7.20 ERA over 10 innings. They’ve slashed .318/.362/.500 with a .862 OPS against him.

Phillies vs Brewers Prediction Today
Call me crazy, but I think the Phillies can win this one. They’ve hit Peralta well in the past, so hopefully, we’re going to get another bomb bonanza tonight.
