PHILLIES NEWS

Tonight the Phils continued their series with the A's with the second of a three game set. Kyle Kendrick got the start and again looking to help end the Phils skid at last, he produced his best performance of the season thus far allowing 0 runs on 4 hits in 8 masterful innings of work. Now onto the game. In the top of the first, Pat "the Bat" Burrell slapped a sac fly for a 1-0 Phil's lead. In the top of the 4th, Burrell singled and scored on a triple by Pedro Feliz, and Chris Coste slapped another sac fly for a 3-0 Phil's lead. In the top of the 6th, The "Flyin Hawaiian" Shane Victorino singled on a bunt and scored on another single by Chris Coste for a 4-0 Phil's lead. Finally in the bottom of the 9th, J.C Romero, who blew it yesterday came in and closed out the A's relatively uneventfully, after issuing a two out walk. So the Phils finally end their skid and move to 43-36 overall, now 2 games up in the NL East.
