One day after the San Francisco Giants beat the Philadelphia Philies in a duel between Tim Lincecum and Roy Halliday, the Phillies return the favor winning 6 to 1. Now the NLCS series is tied 1 - all.
This time Phillies Pitcher Roy Oswalt gets the win after an effective performance augmented by Philli bats. Jimmy Rollins drove in four of the six runs for the Phillies.
While Philadelphia bats were hot SF Giants bats were cold. All with the exception of Cody Ross. The outfielder and Giants playoff star hit a home run to drive in San Francisco's only run.
SF Giants Pitcher Jonathan Sanchez got the loss due to inconsistent pitching that led to three Phillies runs, two earned in six innings of play. According to ESPN, Sanchez had dominated the Phillies in five previous outings.
