SERIES PREVIEW

Phillies (25-19) at Tigers (21-22)

Comerica Park

7:10PM on CSN

Vince Velasquez (5-1) 2.42 ERA

PHILLIES: He was far from efficient in his last outing, needing 103 pitches to get through five innings, but Velasquez was dominant. He now has four starts in 2016 in which he’s allowed no runs and three hits or fewer.

Mike Pelfrey (0-4) 5.49 ERA

TIGERS: He's cooking up a batch of shitty baseball.
