An exciting pitching matchup is the story on Sunday night when the Philadelphia Phillies visit the New York Mets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pregame narrative:<\/strong> Even though I’m expecting a low-scoring game with Zack Wheeler and Tylor Megill on the mound, I like the price on Pete Alonso’s hits prop. To back the starting pitchers, I’m also eyeing the under on the total for the first five innings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Bet<\/a>: Alonso over 0.5 hits<\/strong> (-130)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #95353<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alonso has a pretty good history against Wheeler so I’m willing to take this risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The “Polar Bear” is 10-for-31 (.323) off the Phillies’ ace with five walks and just six strikeouts. That last part is nice to see for the swing-happy first baseman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, Alonso is hot right now. He has hits in seven of his last nine games and is hitting .333 over that span.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This line was set with the pitching matchup heavily in mind and I get that. But with the history Alonso has vs. his counterpart, my interest is piqued. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key stat:<\/strong> Alonso has a hit in seven of the last 10 games against Wheeler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quick picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Under 3.5 runs – first five innings (-125)<\/a>:<\/strong> Consider this as best bet No. 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #95355<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wheeler has been mentioned briefly already but I want to get back to him. He has a 2.56 ERA and 0.95 WHIP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Philly’s starter has given up two or fewer runs in nine straight starts and has pitched over six innings per outing during that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now let’s transition to Megill. The righty is on a roll right now, giving up one or fewer runs in four of his past five starts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His history against the Phillies’ lineup is encouraging, too. The current offence has 15 hits in 72 at-bats (.208) with 20 strikeouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My prediction is this game ends up being a bit of a pitching duel and this is the best way to take advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
