The Marlins are set to begin their series in the “The City of Brotherly Love.” However, they may not love their first matchup of the three-game set as they will be welcomed by Phillies ace Zack Wheeler.

Wheeler has been one of the best pitchers in baseball this season as he enters this outing with a 10-5 record and 2.59 ERA. He’s also been on a hot streak of late as he’s given up two runs or fewer in his last four starts.
