Sept. 27 -- IN-GAME: PHILLIES 3, NATS 2

BY SCOTT LAUBER

Right-hander Ryan Madson, who has emerged as the primary setup reliever, yielded a run in the eighth but stranded the tying run on second base by getting Elijah Dukes to hit a broken-bat grounder to third base and striking out Aaron Boone.

In a nervous moment, Shane Victorino was shaken up after colliding with Jimmy Rollins in shallow center field on a sacrifice fly by Lastings Milledge. It appeared that Victorino injured his right shin, but he has remained in the game.

Three outs to go, and if the Phillies hang on, I'll be heading down to the field. More blogging later tonight.
