The Phils finished their series with the Mets this afternoon. The veteran Jamie Moyer got the start and produced yet another masterful performance, allowing just 1 run on 2 hits in 7 innings of work. Meanwhile, the Phils couldn't do much against the Met's Oliver Perez either with just 1 run through 8 innings. So again it would come down to a battle of the bullpens. Now onto the game. In the bottom of the 3rd, David Wright singled in a run for a 1-0 Met's lead. In the top of the 7th, Jayson Werth slugged a solo homer to knot it up at 1. In the bottom of the 8th, Carlos Delgado slapped a 2 run double for a 3-1 Met's lead. Finally in the top of the 9th, despite a two out single by Chris Coste, to give Jimmy Rollins a shot to be hero, after being benched for being late to the game, the Phils went down again at the hands of ex-Phil Billy Wagner, as Rollins grounded into a fielder's choice. So the Phils drop to 54-48 overall and down to 2nd place in the NL East, 1 game behind the hated Mets.

The Mets certainly are hated and it certainly does suck losing to them twice in a row...they better pick up the ball or there could be trouble
