The Phils finished off their 3 game set with the Cardinals this afternoon. The veteran Jamie Moyer got the start and produced another solid effort allowing just 1 run on 7 hits in 7 innings of work. Meanwhile, Ryan Howard stayed hot knocking in 3 of the Phils 4 runs, but would his singluar efforts be enough on this night? Now onto the game. In the bottom of the first Ryan Howard slugged a 2 run homer for a 2-0 Phil's lead. In the bottom of the 3rd, Chase Utley doubled in a run for a 3-0 lead. In the top of the 4th Troy Glaus doubled and scored on a single by Yadier Molina to cut the lead to 3-1. In the bottom of the 6th, Howard did it again with a solo shot for a 4-1 lead. Finally in the top of the 9th J.C Romero, yes Romero not Lidge who got the night off, closed it out for the 4-1 Phil's win as they improve to 50-43 overall, still 1.5 games ahead of the hated Mets.
