The Phillies began their six-man rotation tonight against the Braves, sending David Buchanan to the hill for the first time since he got shelled for 11 runs in 1 2/3 innings back on August 11th in Arizona. Buchanan's performance wasn't as bad, but it wasn't good at all, allowing 10 hits and four runs in just 3 1/3 innings tonight in the Phillies 8-1 defeat to the Braves.
