Carpenter, Philadelphia Start Divisional Series Strong with Home Win
The Philadelphia Phillies powered past the visiting San Francisco Giants, 6-5, in the opener of the Divisional Series at Veterans Stadium today. Philadelphia starting pitcher Chris Carpenter threw 5 innings allowing 3 runs, to lead the charge. The Phillies now lead the series 1-0.

With one out in the bottom of the first, Vinny Castilla barreled up a slider from Gary Glover. The result was a 3-run home run, putting the Phillies in front, 4-2.

"They say the first rule of the playoffs is to win the home games," Castilla said afterward. "It feels nice, but it is kind of what we were supposed to do."

Game 2 is scheduled for tomorrow in Philadelphia. Slated to start are Frankie Rodriguez for the San Francisco Giants and Bret Saberhagen for the the Philadelphia Phillies.
