Saturday evening, the Arizona Diamondbacks and Josh Collmenter will face the Philadelphia Phillies and Cliff Lee. Collmenter will make his 18^th start and 23^rd appearance as Lee makes his 12^th start.

Josh Collmenter improved his record to 8 - 5 with a 3.64 ERA after getting the victory in his last start. In that outing, Collmenter surrendered just a run (on a solo homer) and 4 hits in 7 innings as he walked a batter and struck out 4. He is 4 -1 in his last 6 starts and he is getting wins by keeping his opponents off the scoreboard. Last season, Collmenter worked exclusively out of the bullpen and compiled a record of 5 - 5 with a 3.13 ERA in 49 relief appearances.

In 2013, Collmenter pitched just 4.1 innings in 2 relief appearances against the Phillies. This season, he got his first victory of the year by holding Philadelphia scoreless in 6 innings of work.

Cliff Lee was rocked in his last outing and the loss lowered his record to 4 - 5 with a 3.67 ERA. In the defeat, Lee gave up 6 runs and 12 hits (including a home run) in 5.2 innings. He walked a batter and struck out 3. It was Lee's first start in over 2 months after he went on the disabled list with an elbow injury but maybe the loss was the result of some rust. Lee really has no chance of matching his results from 2013 when he went 14 - 8 with a 2.87 ERA in 31 starts.

Last season, Lee won his only start against the Diamondbacks behind 7 shutout innings of 6 hit ball. He pitched to a no-decision against the Diamondbacks earlier this season.
