The Phils continued their interleague series with the Red Sox tonight. The veteran Jamie Moyer got the start, and pitched well, allowing just 2 runs on 4 hits in 5 innings of work. However, the Red Sox, Jon Lester bested him blanking the Phils on 6 hits in 7 brilliant innings of work. Now onto the game. In the top of the 2nd, Coco Crisp slammed a 2 run homer for a 2-0 Red Sox lead. In the top of the 6th, Crisp singled, stole second, stole third, and scored on a double by Julio Lugo for a 3-0 Red Sox lead. From there the shutout continued until Jonathan Papelbon struck out the side in the bottom of 9th inning to close out the 3-0 Red Sox win. So the Phils drop to 42-31 overall and now lead the NL East by just 2.5 games.
