Blanco's bunt leads Giants over Phillies - Yahoo! Sports

PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Matt Cain and Cole Hamels matched each other with better performances at the plate than on the mound.

The two All-Star pitchers hit homers in the same inning, and Gregor Blanco drove in the tiebreaking run with a drag bunt single in the 10th to lead the San Francisco Giants to a 6-5 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday.

It was the first time pitchers homered off each other in the same game since Atlanta's Kevin Millwood and Colorado's Denny Stark did it on May 18, 2002. The last time it happened in the same inning was May 14, 1990, when Montreal's Kevin Gross and Los Angeles' Fernando Valenzuela went deep in the third inning.
