The Philadelphia Phillies are in position to match their longest win streak since 2012, and facing a pitcher with one of baseball's worst ERAs could help their cause.

Philadelphia (15-10) has won six straight and nine of 10 as it seeks to match a seven-game win streak from Sept. 5-12, 2012.
"We're having fun out there and everything is coming together," catcher Cameron Rupp said.
