Dodgers designated hitter J.D. Martinez 7 for 12 (.583) with one double and one home run off Walker in his career but third baseman Max Muncy is 1 for 12 (.083) with one homer.7-12 1-0-1.  Players on the Phillies’ active roster are just 2 for 13 (.154) facing Gonzalez.

Dodgers vs Phillies Betting Outlook

Martinez hit a three-run home run Saturday to lead the Dodgers over the Phillies. David Peralta homered and doubled while Mookie Betts, whose NL MVP odds are +1500, added two hits and two RBIs.

Dodgers shortstop Miguel Rojas sat out for the third time in the last four games because of neck tightness and is questionable for Sunday. Right-handed reliever Shelby Miller was placed on the bereavement list before the game and righty Andre Jackson was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Bryson Stott had three hits for the Phillies, who are expected to activate third baseman Alec Bohm (strained left hamstring) from the injured list prior to Sunday’s game.
