Game 102 Giants @ Phils

Big series with the Giants this week not in terms of the standing but as a fan. First time this season they play each other.

Vance Worley goes against Zito, should have been Linicum but he was sick before the game.
He gave up a leadoff double that got the Giants a 1-0 lead but that was it until Aaron Rowan homered in the eighth.
Until that homer Worley had a feat that matched something only one other pitcher has done since 1920.
One of two pitchers to make 6 consecutive starts with 5+ innings while allowing 1 earned run or fewer, Steve Carlton is the other.

Phils came right back in the bottom of the first with a four spot capped by Ibanez's 3 run homer.
Mayberry later homered and Chase Utley hit an inside the parker off the corner in center field.
Ryan Howard finished it up with a long shot that hit the wall over the center field fence.

Worley gave up three hits in his first career complete game.

Rollins didn't get a hit and hasn't gotten one in four games now.

Worley is now 7-1 and has to be in consideration for rookie of the year.

Phils go back to 28 over .500 and are 29-13 in the last 41 games. Pending the Braves game they are now 6.5 games up on them.

Win 7-2
Streak 1 win
Last ten 7-3
Record 65-37
