Recap: Philadelphia vs. NY Mets
By Sports Network
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Jamie Moyer pitched into the seventh inning and the Philadelphia bullpen did the rest, helping the Phillies upend the Mets 4-1 in the second of a three-game series between the NL East rivals.
Moyer (7-6), in his 600th career start, picked up win No. 253, tying him with Carl Hubbell for 10th all-time among left-handers. The veteran gave up a run on five hits and a walk in 6 1/3 innings of work.
Jimmy Rollins had a two-run double and Shane Victorino went 3-for-5 with an RBI for the Phillies, who have taken the first two games of this set on the heels of a three-game losing streak.
Fernando Nieve (3-2) lasted 5 2/3 frames for New York, giving up four runs -- three earned -- on six hits and six walks. The starter also had the Mets' only RBI in the club's seventh loss in nine games. Alex Cora recorded half of the team's six hits.
The Phillies loaded the bases with one out in the first frame and opened the game's scoring on Jayson Werth's sacrifice fly.
The hosts left the bags filled in the third but got two runs across an inning later when Rollins doubled down the right-field line to bring home Pedro Feliz and Paul Bako, who singled and walked, respectively.
Nick Evans started a rally for New York with a two-out single in the fifth. Omir Santos followed with a base hit and Nieve singled to left, plating the Mets' first tally. Chase Utley made a back-handed stop on a ball hit up the middle by Luis Castillo to end the inning with Philadelphia still ahead, 3-1.
The Mets handed the run back in the sixth. Bako worked a one-out walk after David Wright couldn't come down with his foul ball down the third-base side. Nieve was pulled after walking Rollins with two away, and Pat Misch appeared to get out of the inning unscathed by getting Victorino to pop up behind the plate.
But Santos dropped the sure out, and Victorino made the Mets pay by later singling up the middle, with Bako crossing the plate after Ryan Church's throw home was well off the mark.
Moyer and three Phillies relievers combined to maintain the three-run lead through the seventh and eighth frames, and Brad Lidge worked a perfect ninth for his 15th save of the season.
