The Marlins will be looking to start a win streak to finish the season after struggling in recently. Last Night’s 2-1 victory over the Phillies was the Marlins first win in nine games.

Ricky Nolasco (12-12) will take the mound for the Marlins. Nolasco is 8-4 in his career against the Phillies and has beaten them twice in two starts this year. In his last start Nolasco pitched well against the Mets giving up two runs over seven innings in a no decision.

Roy Halladay (10-8) will start for the Phillies. In his last start Halladay got peppered for seven runs as he lasted just 1 2/3 innings. Halladay is 2-1 in three games against the Marlins this year. Halladay’s 4.40 ERA this season is his highest since 2000.
