The Phils finished off their 3 game set with the Ranger's this evening. the veteran Jamie Moyer got the start and pitched well, allowing just 3 runs on 7 hits in 5 and 2/3rd's innings of work, just good enough to keep the Phils in it to the end. Unfortunately, the Phil's bats betrayed them yet again. Now onto the game. In the bottom of the first Ian Kinsler tripled and scored on a fielder's choice for a 1-0 Ranger's lead. In the bottom of the 2nd, Chris Davis slammed a solo homer for a 2-0 lead. In the bottom of the 3rd, Micheal Young doubled and scored on a single by Josh Hamilton for a 3-0 lead. In the top of the 6th, Chase Utley doubled and scored on a single by Ryan Howard to cut the lead to 3-1. In the bottom of the 8th, Marlon Byrd doubled and scored on a Ramon Vazquez single, and Max Ramirez was hit by a pitch and later scored on a fielder's choice for a 5-1 Ranger's lead. Finally, in the top of the 9th, the Phils went down in order to finish off the 5-1 Ranger's win, and drop to 44-39 overall, now, but remain 1 game up in the NL East.
