Sept. 27 -- IN-GAME: NUTHIN' DOIN'

BY SCOTT LAUBER

Three innings complete, and not much to report here at the Bank. Ageless lefty Jamie Moyer and young lefty John Lannan are locked in a pitchers' duel. But Moyer has thrown 48 pitches, Lannan has thrown 53, and neither seems to be destined to reach the late innings. Could be a battle of the bullpens, which, of course, favors the Phillies. Jayson Werth just struck out with Jimmy Rollins on second base, giving him only five hits in his last 32 at-bats. Not good.

Meantime, the Mets have blanked the Marlins, 2-0, on a complete-game three-hitter by The Johan (yeah, Santana is good), and the Cubs are leading the Brewers, 4-0, in the third inning at Miller Park.
