Toady's Major League Baseball Match is between Philadelphia Phillies and Pittsburgh Pirates on Wednesday July 2, 2010 at 7:05 pm EDT.
Philadelphia Phillies lost Thursday’s opener at PNC Park 3-2 after the defeat Chase Utley probably won’t return until September because of a damaged ligament in his right thumb.
Pittsburgh’s offense hasn’t done much to help Ohlendorf, backing the right-hander with 2.37 runs per game. Despite plating 10 runs in five games, the Pirates are 3-2.
They’re trying to win three in a row for the first time since May 4-6. Philadelphia hasn’t lost three straight since June 10-12.
