vintage jamie moyer

In a great rebound from his last outing vs. the Mets, Jamie Moyer held the NY team scoreless through seven innings this afternoon, giving up just a bunt single and an infield single to earn his 13th win of the season. Magnificent! The Phillies manufactured two runs in the 2nd off of Pedro Martinez, then added four more in the 4th, including a 3-run homer by Gregg Dobbs, his second big homer of the series. The bullpen gave up two runs in the 8th. Final score: 6-2. The Phillies have now taken the first two games of the series. The third will be played in a couple of hours. Sweeping a doubleheader is not likely and vaunted pitching match-ups, in this case Hamels vs. Santana, have a way of fizzling. But let's go, Cole! Let's go, Phils!
