| A big 5-run Phillies 2nd inning proves to be enough as they beat the Rockies. An interesting variety of ways to score runs in the inning, as the first run scores on a Kyle Lohse squeeze, runs 2 and 3 score on a Chase Utley single, and the 4th and 5th on a Ryan Howard double. Howard would also add a two-run homerun later in the game for his 46th homerun of the year, second in the majors behind Adam Dunn's 49. Despite the win, a win today by the Mets officially eliminates the Phillies from the playoff picture. The typical slow Phillie start this year just never improved much, and they just have not done as well as expected no matter what I tried. Time to just play out the string now, I guess. I believe this will be the first year since I have started doing the SOM on the computer that both the Phillies and Red Sox will not make the playoffs. |

Ryan Howard blasted a homerun and had 4 RBI at Citizen's Bank Park as the
Philadelphia Phillies beat the Colorado Rockies by the count of 8 to
4.
Howard provided much of the offense. He doubled which was good for two runs
in the 2nd inning and blasted a two-run home run (his 46th of the season) in
the 4th inning. Philadelphia had 13 hits for the night while Colorado had
10.
The victory went to Kyle Lohse(15-3) who went 6 innings, allowing 3 runs. Tom
Gordon earned the save, his 8th. The losing pitcher was Ubaldo Jimenez(4-4).
His ERA increased from 5.49 to 6.05 as he allowed 5 runs in 1 and 2/3
innings.
Philadelphia now has a record of 67-76. With the loss, Colorado has a record
of 5-5 lately, 72-71 overall.
