| A crazy, entertaining game for the fans with the only dissapointment being the final score. Both starters, A.J. Burnett and Adam Eaton sailed through the first 6 innings with the Phillies drawing first blood in the bottom of the 7th on a Jimmy Rollins sac fly. The lead wouldn't last though, as the Jays tee off on the Phillie relievers for a 5-run 8th inning, the big blow being a grand slam homerun for ex-Phillie Rod Barajas. Ryan Howard homers for the Phillies in the 8th to make the score 5-2, and the Phils complete the comeback with a crazy bottom of the 9th scoring 3 runs to tie it. Eric Bruntlett lined into a doubleplay with the bases loaded to kill the rally and send the game to extra innings. Gregg Zaun hits a 2-run single off of Chad Durbin in the top of the 10th for a 7-5 Jays lead, Shane Victorino homers for the Phillies to lead off the bottom of the 10th to narrow the gap, but that was all they could do. Durbin actually had to bat for himself in the bottom of the 10th due to no more bats off the bench to pinch-hit for him. Adam Eaton has been the unlucky dog lately. 14 innings in his last two starts, no runs allowed, and nothing to show for it but two no-decisions. The bullpen coughed it up in both games as both turned into losses. The Phillie 9th, which at the time tied the game: *** BOTTOM OF INNING 9 *** SUBSTITUTE P - B.J.

The Toronto Blue Jays nipped the Philadelphia Phillies in 10 innings 7 to 6 at
Citizen's Bank Park in a hard fought contest.
The score was knotted at 5 after nine innings. Toronto was victorious in the
10th inning. Matt Stairs kicked off the action when he delivered a one-base
hit. Lyle Overbay stepped up next and he slapped a base-hit. Two outs later
Gregg Zaun stepped up to the plate and he laced a base-hit. Zaun took second
on the throw. The game was a scoreless duel until the 7th inning.
The winning pitcher was Jesse Carlson(2-1) who allowed no runs in 2/3 of an
inning. Brian Tallet got the save, his 1st. Chad Durbin(1-1) was the losing
pitcher in relief.
