The win was Philadelphia's third in a row.
Myers (10-11) struck only one batter, but threw 65 of his 95 pitches for strikes and avoided a big inning against Milwaukee's potent lineup. His lone blemish was Prince Fielder's 30th home run this season with two outs in the top of the seventh.
Jimmy Rollins had two hits and two RBI. Jayson Werth and Pat Burrell knocked in one run apiece.
A run scored on Chase Utley's non-RBI first-inning double-play groundout and Shane Victorino had four hits and scored a run for the Phillies, who closed to within one game of the NL East-leading New York Mets.
Ray Durham had the other hit in the Brewers' third straight defeat.
Losing pitcher Jeff Suppan (10-9) yielded six earned runs and eight hits with four walks in 3 2/3 innings.
