It was Raul's 37th birthday and Antonio's career debut as both players carried the Phils to their 5th straight victory.
Raul blasted 2 HR's as he went 3-5 with 5 RBIs. Bastardo pitched 6 strong innings, allowing just one earned run. While it was the lowly Padres, it still is a great sign.
Bastardo's next start will give him the chance to show the league what he's made of (apparently, a 95 mph fastball), as it will be the Sunday Night Baseball game on ESPN against the potent Dodgers offense.
The Phils are now 30-20 and lead the NL East by 2.5 games
