Game Recap May 24: Phillies vs. Reds

Tonights game between the Philadelphia Phillies and the Cincinnati Reds was not as much of a high scoring game as last nights game for the Phillies.  Pitching for the Phillies tonight was Worley who went five innings.

In the 1st Worley allowed a double by Joey Votto and allowed Votto to score on a Scott Rolen single.  The 2nd inning was starting to look like last nights game for the Phillies.  Ryan Howard hit a long double followed by Raul Ibanez doubling and getting an RBI.  Domonic Brown then hit a sacrifice fly allowing Ibanez to score. 

In the 3rd inning Chase Utley got his first hit of the season with a single to center field.  In the 4th Ibanez got his second hit of the night followed by a double by Carlos Ruiz, which allowed Ibanez to score.  In the 5th the game started to turn and the Reds had a big inning.  First, Johnny Cueto walked.  Then, Drew Stubbs hit a ground rule double followed by single by Brandon Phillips which was a 2 RBI single.  This makes the game a tie game at 3.  In the 6th Charlie Manuel made a pitching change having David Hemdon replace Worley.  Then, another pitching change for the Phillies in the 7th having Micheal Stutes to replace Hemdon.  Again there was another pitching change for the Phillies in the 8th inning, Antonio Bastardo for Stutes.  In the 9th the Reds broke the tie with Bruce hitting a 3 run double. 

The Reds won the game 6 to 3 and tied this four game series at 1 game each.
