Top MLB No Runs First Inning (NRFI) Picks & Odds: Braves vs. Phillies
The Braves are red hot and have shrunk the Metsâ divisional lead down to 3.0 games heading into todayâs matchup with the Phillies. Atlanta has an opportunity to pick up another half-game this evening, and theyâll turn to Ian Anderson to help guide them there. As for the Phillies, theyâll go with Aaron Nola as they try to avoid the three-game sweep. The first pitch is scheduled for 6:05 p.m. ET from Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, PA.
Anderson has had an up-and-down season in 2022 as he enters with a 6-4 record, 4.60 ERA, and 1.45 WHIP over 14 starts. The right-hander last pitched on Friday against the Dodgers and lasted 4.0 innings, allowing four earned runs on six hits and four walks. He took the loss, and the team moved to 9-5 in his starts this year.
Nolaâs quietly been one of the best pitchers in baseball this year. The right-hander comes in at just 4-5, but heâs posted a 2.98 ERA (20th) and 0.90 WHIP (4th). Heâs also struck out 109 batters, ranking fifth overall in Major League Baseball. Nolaâs coming off of a dominant outing against the Padres, where he limited them to one earned run on seven hits over 7.0 innings of work.
Nolaâs been a beast this month, going 2-1 with a 2.00 ERA and 0.83 WHIP over five starts. Heâll have his hands full against a tough Braves lineup tonight, but heâs capable of handling them. Nola threw against Atlanta in May and held them to one earned run on five hits over 8.1 innings pitched. As for Anderson, weâll turn to the head-to-head stats, where heâs held the Phillies to 7-47 (.149) in his career with no home runs allowed. I like this NRFI play, especially with a slight plus-money payout.
