Tonight's matchup between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Los Angeles Dodgers spotlights two of the top teams in the National League, with significant playoff implications. The Phillies currently hold the best record in the NL, while the Dodgers are closely competing for home-field advantage in the postseason. Christopher Sanchez, with a mixed performance on the road, will take the mound for the Phillies, aiming to continue his successful outing against the Dodgers earlier this season. Meanwhile, the Chicago White Sox, having endured a 20-game losing streak, are set to face the Oakland Athletics, with both teams struggling this season. In a notable trend, Yankees star Aaron Judge is now receiving intentional walks reminiscent of Barry Bonds' era, as managers adjust their strategies to mitigate his impact on games. Additionally, upcoming pitching matchups feature prominent names, including Aaron Nola for the Phillies and Tyler Glasnow for the Dodgers.
