The Phillies did their best to make Duran feel at home in his debut. The flashing lights and pulsating music and virtual flames were ready to roll as he jogged out for the ninth inning. Duran did so wearing No. 59 because Phillies manager Rob Thomson offered it up.

Those four pitches were all splitters as Duran finished out a Phillies comeback victory over the Tigers to take the series opener -- and regain first place in the National League East. In one of the most electrifying games of the year, Duran stole the show in his debut.
