and the angst rolls on

Jamie Moyer was (dare I say again) awful last night. Rodrigo Lopez in relief was not much better. Between the two, they gave up eight runs in an 8-3 loss to the streaking Rockies. With the exception of a two-run homer by Jimmy Rollins, the offense continued to be missing. Utley and Howard were a combined 0-7. It's hot and sticky, what Charlie Manuel calls "hittin' weather". The Rockies were rolling, but the Phillies were not.
