Randy Johnson (2-1) got the win despite giving up four runs on five hits over six innings. He struck out six. Relievers Chad Qualls, Tony Pena and Brandon Lyon each pitched a scoreless inning. It was Lyon's 10th save.

The Phillies' runs came mostly from Eric Bruntlett, who homered, doubled and knocked in three runs. Jayson Werth hit a solo homer for Philadelphia, which lost for the fourth time in its last 12 games.
