The Philadelphia Phillies rank 7th in runs scored and a huge reason for their success can be accredited to Rhys Hoskins and Bryce Harper. Vince Velasquez has been an excellent starter in the backend of the rotation this season, and he should have no problem finding success against a starless Detroit Tigers team.
