00:00DRS, let's start in Philly. You're there in regional Philadelphia.

00:03My first question is not who wins this set of two games.

00:07Will we see this doubleheader today at the bank?

00:10They're going to try to wait it out.

00:11There's a reason why you postponed a game yesterday if you feel you can't get it in

00:14because you can definitely squeeze in two games the next day.

00:17But it has not stopped raining over the past 24 hours.

00:20I'm not looking out the window right now, but before we started the show,

00:22it was pouring rain. It's saturated.

00:24Now, granted, we understand the tarp is over the infield.

00:26They have very good draining mechanisms in major league ballparks here.

00:30But at the same time, if it just continues to rain and rain throughout the game

00:34to squeeze in a doubleheader, not just, hey, let's get in five and two-thirds innings here,

00:38five and a third innings, and get out of town at this point.

00:40I hope it plays because you have a pretty good pitching matchup in the Phillies' favor,

00:43particularly in game number one going up against Eric Fetty.

00:46What's Fetty do well?

00:47He has a decent ERA on the season, but high XFIP numbers,

00:50which means high walk rates and low K rates.

00:52And the Philadelphia Phillies over the past 30 days gets right into pitching.

00:55They don't strike out all that much, so the ball will be in play.

00:59So if you are looking to back the Philadelphia Phillies,

01:01game number one is probably your main advantage today,

01:03as opposed to game number two with Gray and Nola.
