FRIDAY QUICK HITS

PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES @ MILWAUKEE BREWERS

Ryan Howard played tonight and wasted no time nailing his 32nd home run. His first at bat in the first inning, he let loose with a three run shot. The Phillies added two more in the seventh and went on to beat the Brewers 5-3.

With Roy Halladay on the mound for eight strong innings the Brewers could only manage four hits and one run. Halladay (17-5) gave up the one run on four hits, walked three and had nine K’s. Antonio Bastardo started the ninth and gave up two runs.

Ryan Madson came in to relieve Bastardo, put out the fire and secure the win for Halladay. This was Madson’s 29th save.

The Phillies had eleven hits scoring five runs. Howard was one for three, the homer  and had three RBI to give him 111 for the season. Raul Ibanez and Carlos Ruiz each had one RBI, Carlos going two for two along with two walks. Pete Orr played second base for Chase Utley and went three for four.

Shaun Marcum got the loss for the Brewers, he is now 12-6.

Philadelphia has won five straight, their record 93-48. They are 10-2 in my "Final 33" seven from 100 wins with 21 games remaining.
On Saturday the Phillies will start Cliff Lee and the Brewers will counter with former Phillies pitcher Randy Wolf.
