After seeing the Giants score two in the fourth and one in the fifth, the Phillies haven't had an answer. The top of the sixth went by on 14 pitches, with a pair of groundouts and a fly out. Matt Cain hasn't been dominant, but he's been very effective, and the Phillies simply haven't been able to take many good swings. The good news is that Cain's up to 95 pitches, but the bad news is that the San Francisco bullpen is a good one.
Phillies Vs. Giants, NLCS Game 3: Matt Cain, Cole Hamels Throw Scoreless Sixth
If nothing else, Cole Hamels was at least able to keep the Giants off the board in the sixth. He did it in convincing fashion, too, striking out Pat Burrell, striking out Cody Ross, and catching an Aubrey Huff infield fly by himself. Hamels is at 101 pitches, but his sixth inning was arguably his sharpest.
Going into the seventh, it's 3-0 Giants, and Nate Schierholtz has replaced Pat Burrell in the outfield for defensive purposes. Schierholtz is going to right, while Ross is sliding to left.
