<p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.thegoodphight.com/">Philadelphia Phillies</a> and <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.mccoveychronicles.com/">San Francisco Giants</a> will conclude their three-game series at Citizens Bank Park on Sunday (1:35 p.m. ET on PHL 17). Philly's <span>Joe Blanton</span> (8-8) will take the mound and oppose former teammate <span>Barry Zito</span> (8-6), as the Phillies try and salvage at least a victory in the three-game series.</p>
<p>On Saturday, Philly fell in 10 innings by a score of 6-5. The loss was the Phillies seventh straight loss at home and dropped them to a disappointing 17-29 at their home park -- a mark that is worst in the major leagues.</p>
<p>Blanton will enter the game coming off a nice start on Monday, while Zito tossed seven scoreless innings against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.talkingchop.com/">Atlanta Braves</a> on Tuesday. Both players pitched together with the Oakland A's from 2004-06.</p>

<p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.thegoodphight.com/">Philadelphia Phillies</a> fought valiantly, but ultimately fell short in 10 innings on Saturday 6-5 to the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.mccoveychronicles.com/">San Francisco Giants</a> at Citizens Bank Park.</p>
<p><span>Cole Hamels</span> wasn't his usual brilliant self, allowing five runs in 7.2 innings on three walks and 10 hits, including a trio of home runs. Despite being staked to a 5-4 lead in the eighth, Hamels couldn't pass the baton to <span>Jonathan Papelbon</span> before giving up a tying-home run to <span>Melky Cabrera</span>.</p>
<p>In the 10th, <span>Gregor Blanco</span> was able to provide a RBI bunt single, driving in the eventual game-winning run home in the form of Cabrera. </p>
<p>Surprisingly, Philadelphia was able to hit <span>Matt Cain</span> hard who surrendered five earned runs in eight innings on five hits including blasts by <span>Ryan Howard</span>, <span>Chase Utley</span> and Hamels.</p>
<p><span>Buster Posey</span> was the star of the afternoon, going 4-for-5 with three RBI including a two-run homer in the third inning.</p>
<p>On Sunday, the Phillies will look to avoid the sweep with <span>Joe Blanton</span> on the mound against <span>Barry Zito</span>.</p>

<p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.thegoodphight.com/">Philadelphia Phillies</a> (41-53) will look to rebound from their <a href="http://philly.sbnation.com/2012/7/20/3173436/phillies-vs-giants-final-score-recap-game-1-vance-worley/in/2937476">Game 1 loss on Saturday</a>, taking on the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.mccoveychronicles.com/">San Francisco Giants</a> (52-41) in the second game of the three-game series. <span>Cole Hamels</span> (11-4 3.07 ERA) will take the hill for Philadelphia, facing off with <span>Matt Cain</span> (10-3 2.56 ERA) for San Francisco in what could easily be an impressive pitchers' duel. Both men are in the top 10 in the National League for wins, strikeouts and innings pitched.</p>
<p>Philadelphia will likely need an impressive performance from Hamels. The offense was lacking in Friday's game, and history does not bode well for Game 2. <span>Ryan Howard</span>, <span>Shane Victorino</span>, <span>Chase Utley</span> and <span>Jimmy Rollins</span> have all struggled against Cain.</p>

<p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.thegoodphight.com/">Philadelphia Phillies</a> lost to the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.mccoveychronicles.com/">San Francisco Giants</a> by a final score of 7-2 Friday night, losing the opening game of the three game series. Phillies hitters were unable to find much success against <span>Tim Lincecum</span>, getting five hits and two runs in seven innings while being struck out six times.</p>
<p><span>Vance Worley</span> started for Philadelphia and appeared to be handling things until the top of the sixth inning. After two singles to open the inning Worley walked the bases full. <span>Pablo Sandoval</span> knocked in one run with a sacrifice fly and Worley walked the next man to load the bases again. <span>Brandon Crawford</span> took full advantage of that mistake, sending a ball over the right field wall to make it 6-1 San Francisco. Crawford picked up another RBI on a single in the eighth, but aside from a <span>Ryan Howard</span> solo home run in the bottom of the sixth Philadelphia didn't have an answer.</p>
<p>Philadelphia drops to 41-53 with the loss. They'll look to rebound in Game 2 of the series, scheduled for Saturday afternoon at 4:05 p.m. ET.</p>

<p>The Philadelphia Phillies and the San Fransisco Giants start a three game series Friday night at Citizens Bank Park. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET.</p> <p><span class="datetime"></span>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.thegoodphight.com/">Philadelphia Phillies</a> look to continue their hot start to the second half of the season as they welcome in the NL West leading San Fransisco <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.mccoveychronicles.com/">Giants</a> for game one of a three game series at Citizens Bank Park.</p>
<p>The Phillies currently sit 13.5 games behind the NL East leading <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.federalbaseball.com/">Washington Nationals</a> and 10 games behind the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.talkingchop.com/">Atlanta Braves</a> for the last Wild Card position. The Giants have a 2.5 game lead in the NL West over the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.truebluela.com/">Los Angeles Dodgers</a></p>
<p>Philadelphia will send out <span>Vance Worley</span> (5-5, 3.47 ERA) for Friday's series opener, looking to build off of his last start against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.purplerow.com/">Colorado Rockies</a>. Worley got the win against the Rockies when he gave up eight hits and just two earned runs in 6-2/3 innings of work.</p>
<p>The Giants will counter with <span>Tim Lincecum</span> (3-10, 5.93 ERA), who arguably had his best start of the year against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.crawfishboxes.com/">Astros</a> on July 14. While he didn't factor in the decision, Lincecum pitched eight innings of shut out ball, only giving up five hits and striking out 11.</p>
