Roy Oswalt took us into the stretch with another stellar inning, going 1-2-3 with a strikeout of Pat Burrell. That led us into the bottom of the seventh, where Oswalt promptly came up against Jonathan Sanchez and laced a base hit into center field just in front of the outstretched glove of a sliding Andres Torres.
Giants Vs. Phillies, NLCS Game 2: Jonathan Sanchez Pulled In Seventh
For Bruce Bochy, that was enough, and he called on Ramon Ramirez to come in in relief of Sanchez. Sanchez's performance:
6+ innings
5 hits
2 runs (1 earned, so far)
3 walks
7 strikeouts
100 pitches (64 strikes)
After a strenuous, wild first inning, Sanchez really settled down and turned in a solid start. Now it’s on the bullpen to keep this game close to give the lineup a shot at a comeback.
