Pirates 2, Phillies 0

In a night that was filled with massive frustration and what seemed like an inevitable heartbreaking loss, the Pirates pulled out a 2-0 stunner in 12 innings at Citizens Bank Park on Friday night.--Paul Maholm was back to his usual self (of late)--the dominant one. 7 innings, 10 K's (which I believe has to be a career high for him).
