The Philadelphia Phillies will look to avoid the sweep when they take on the Texas Rangers in the third and final game of the series on Sunday Night Baseball. The Phillies (0-2), who ended a 10-year postseason drought last season by qualifying as a Wild Card and making the World Series, will look to have their third winning season in a row for the first time since a nine-year winning stretch from 2003 to 2011. The Rangers (2-0), meanwhile, are looking for their first winning year since 2016. Texas was just 68-94 in 2022. 

The game is slated to begin at 7:08 p.m. ET from Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. Texas is listed as a -130 favorite (risk $130 to win $100) on the money line in the latest Phillies vs. Rangers odds from Caesars Sportsbook, while the over/under for total runs scored is 8.5 (see the latest lines for every game on our MLB odds page).
