It is no secret that Phillies ace Aaron Nola has not been himself this season. While he has a 2-0 record, the 25-year-old right-hander also carries a 6.84 ERA in his 25 innings with 12 walks and 28 strikeouts.
Nola will look to build on his last improved outing when he takes the mound as the Phillies return home for the opener of a four-game long weekend series against the Miami Marlins at Citizens Bank Park on Thursday evening.
In his previous start last Saturday night at hitter-friendly Coors Field, Nola gave up three runs and nine hits over 5.
