The Philadelphia Phillies are looking to capitalize on their recent success, currently celebrating their first National League East title in over a decade. As they prepare to face the Chicago Cubs, left-hander Cristopher Sanchez will take the mound, hoping to replicate his impressive September form against a Cubs team struggling recently.
Despite a rocky start to the season against Chicago, Sanchez has been solid in recent outings. On the other side, the Cubs will rely on right-hander Javier Assad, who has faced challenges, especially on the road. Fans will be eagerly awaiting the first pitch at 6:05 PM EST.
