The young Marlin line-up simply can't figure out what Jamie Moyer is throwing. Moyer once again baffled the Marlins in a 4-2 Phillies win on Friday night to move his career record against Florida to 10-0. Moyer went 6 innings and gave up 2 runs before turning it over to the Phillies bullpen, who shut the door on the Marlins. Brad Lidge quickly got over his All-Star Game loss and pitched a perfect 9th inning to get his 21st save in as many chances.

Offensively, Ryan Howard continued the tear he was on leading right up to the All-Star break and hit his 29th homer of the season. Geoff Jenkins also added a homer of his own.

The Mets finally lost a game tonight after winning 10 straight which means the Phils moved into sole possession of first place in the NL East.
