Denver - Philly Game 3

In Philadelphia, its Rudy Baker (PHI) vs. Kei Ijawa (DEN). This is a fine pitchers duel from the start. Philadelphia decides to sit SS Jerry Ruiz and C Matt Bulger since they are tired despite the off day. To replace Ruiz, Philly slides 2B Jimmy Taylor back to his original position and plays Moochie Henson at 2B. In the bottom of the 3rd, Ijawa strikes out the side, but not before allowing back to back homers to Rocky Balboni and Paul White. Those homers turn out to be the only runs of the game as Philly takes Game Three 2-0. Baker goes the distance, 9-4-0-0-2-10 and Ijawa takes the loss with 7-3-2-2-4-8.
