johnson takes the rematch

What happened Thursday night, in the rematch of Josh Johnson v. Roy Halladay, was an almost predictable bit of tit for tat. This time Johnson won. Halladay gave up just one run, on a first-inning sacrifice fly that probably should not even have happened. The Phillies got stray hits against Johnson but that was it. Danys Baez (oh, no) took over in the ninth and gave up a home run to Dan Uggla. Leo Nunez closed the door for the Marlins in a 2-0 win. It was the seventh time the Phillies have been shut out this year. They were shut out seven times in all last season.
