moyers is brilliant, 9th is not

Sometimes it's better to sleep. When I fell asleep last night, Jamie Moyer was still pitching brilliantly and the Phillies had the lead. Moyer went seven, giving up two runs on four hits. Romero pitched a scoreless 8th, then Brad Lidge, with two outs, gave up the winning double to Andre Ethier in a 4-3 loss. A rare Feliz error (shades of that Park-Santana game in NY) helped to doom Lidge. What to say, except that the Phillies had plenty of chances to add to their lead before their undoing in the 9th.
