The Philadelphia Phillies look to snap a three-game slide at Citizens Bank Park tonight when they host a Baltimore Orioles club looking to win their fourth straight interleague series.

The NL East-leading Phillies, who have lost five of six, open the final leg of their nine-game homestand after getting swept by the Toronto Blue Jays.

Philadelphia, who is a -152 favorite, is a major league-best 23-9 on the road but just 13-19 at home.

Baltimore won its third straight interleague series Thursday when it scored one in the eighth inning and two in the ninth to defeat the New York Mets 5-4.

Rich Hill takes the mound as Baltimore opens a six-game trip. The lefthander is 0-2 with a 5.74 ERA in three career starts against the Phillies.

Antonio Bastardo will get the start for the Phillies.
