The Phillies swept the lowly Nationals 4 to 2 in front of a sold out crowd at CBP. Jamie Moyer finally picked up career win number 250, working 6 strong innings and allowing just a Josh Willingham Home-run. Chris Coste went 2-for-2 with a homer in the win. John Lannan picked up the loss for the last-place Nationals.
Heading on the road this week, I think we will start to learn about the 09 version of the Phillies. Against teams not named the Nationals the Phillies are 18-18 on the year.
The Mets took the rubber-match of their three-game set with the Marlins. New York used rbi doubles from Fernando Martinez, Omir Santos and Angle Pagan to provide the offense. John Maine pitched 6 shutout innings, while K-Rod picked up his 14th save as a Met. Chris Volstad took the loss for Florida which is now 12-27 since starting 11-1 in April.
Atlanta jumped all over Arizona to split their four-game set at Chase Field. The Braves jumped out to a 9-0 edge in the first 5 innings, and went on to win it 9-3. Kris Medlen went 6 innings allowing just one run on four hits for Atlanta. Chipper Jones went 3-for-4 a homer and 4 rbi.
Next up for the NL East:

Braves host the Cubs for 3.
