PHILLIES NEWS

Joe Blanton could not make it two in a row in Atlanta tonight as he lasted just 5 innings, allowing 2 runs on 5 hits and striking out 5. Meanwhile, Jair Jurrjens limited the Phils to just 3 hits, their only 3 of the night, over 7 and 1/3rd innings. Two of those three hits were RBI doubles, by Jimmy Rollins and Wilson Valdez, and later Valdez scored on a fielder's choice. This time however, the Phils bullpen did not hold up as Kyle Kendrick and J.C Romero combined to allow 3 runs in the 6th inning, which proved to be the difference in a 5-3 Braves win.
