The Phils finished their series with the Marlins this afternoon. The veteran Jamie Moyer got the start and pitched well, allowing just 1 run on 6 hits in 6 innings of work. Meanwhile the Phils jumped out early with 3 runs in the first 5 innings, so it would come down to the bullpen to hold this one. Now onto the game. In the top of the 3rd, Chase utley slammed a 2 run homer for a 2-0 lead. In the top of the 4th, Jimmy Rollins singled in a run for a 3-0 lead. In the bottom of the 6th, Alfredo Amezaga singled in a run to cut the lead to 3-1. In the bottom of the 7th, Josh Willingham singled in a run to cut the lead to 3-2. In the top of the 8th, Pedro Feliz slammed a 2 run homer for a 5-2 lead. Finally in the bottom of the 9th Brad Lidge came in and retired the marlins after allowing a couple of base runners, to close out the 5-3 win. So the Phils move to 88-68 overall and now lead the NL East by 1.5 games.
