    After taking the loss in three consecutive appearances last week, Justin De Fratus became the face of the much-maligned Philadelphia Phillies bullpen.

    Tuesday night, his performance against the lone batter he faced was the difference in a redemptive victory.

    Jonathan Pettibone pitched neatly into the sixth inning and the Phillies snapped the Pittsburgh Pirates' nine-game winning streak with a 3-1 victory Tuesday night.
