The Phillies have been a bit of a mess at the plate lately. They have scored just eight runs total in their last four games while giving up 18 in their last two. The Sox have now won three straight, all at home, while giving up just five runs in the three victories. Shields has been a mess on the mound, but he’s likely to have a quick hook if he struggles early. Don’t look for Philadelphia to be able to put too many runs on him anyway. Chicago shouldn’t have trouble with Eickhoff, who has a 5.60 ERA in his last three starts.
