Where the Cardinals used 11 pitchers (not counting ones who pitch hit and pitch ran).

Where Cole Hamels and Brett Myers (the Phillies top two pitchers entering the year) gave up 4 runs in 5 innings, but Durbin, Geary, Romero, Gordon, Mesa and Condrey combined for 9 scoreless innings.

Where Jayson Werth came within 1 triple of hitting as many in one game (2) as he did in his best season (3).

Where Clay Condrey came in and got the save, Jose Mesa the win, and Rod Barajas the game winning hit.

The game lasted 5 hours and 4 minutes.

I wonder what the odds in Vegas were of that happening.
