gutty, gritty does it

Joe Blanton struck out the side swinging in the first. That was the only easy part of the evening. The Phillies scored first, the Fish went ahead, then Shane Victorino tied it 2-2 with a solo homer. Gregg Dobbs doubled in the go-ahead run in the 6th. Both starting pitchers had to battle home plate umpire C. B. Buckner's elusive strike zone. Blanton was followed by Durbin, Romero, Madson and Lidge in a gutty, gritty 3-2 win. Games with the Fish exhaust me.
