RHP Chad Durbin struck out 16 of the 35 batters he faced in his last nine innings, unusual considering he isn't regarded as a strikeout pitcher. But a key to Durbin's success out of the bullpen this season has been his increased strikeouts. Durbin, who has become the Phillies' primary right-handed setup man, has 47 strikeouts in 54 2/3 innings.
