Vance Worley tossed his first career complete game, allowing just 2 runs on 3 hits while striking out 5. Meanwhile his teammates put on a power display, stunning the visiting Giants, with one blow after another. In the 1st inning, Ryan Howard doubled and Raul Ibanez blased a 3 run shot for a 4-1 lead. In the 4th inning John Mayberry Jr. lined a solo homer into the seats for a 5-1 lead. In the 6th Chase Utley lined a ball into the gap that got by Andres Torres and rolled back along the wall just long enough for Chase race all the way around the bases for the rare inside the park homer and a 6-1 lead. Finally in the 8th inning, Ryan Howard crushed a solo homer to dead center to cap off a 7-2 thumping of San Francisco. Considering what the Giants did to the Phils last year, that's a pretty good way to start the season series against them.
