Baseball Betting Lines

04/22/2009 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - J.J. Hardy went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, as the Milwaukee Brewers hung on to beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 3-1, in the middle installment of a three-game set at Citizens Bank Park.

Mike Cameron went 1-for-4 with a two-run double for the Brewers, who had lost three of their previous four outings. Corey Hart went 2-for-4 with a run scored.

Braden Looper (2-0) allowed five hits in a scoreless six-inning start to collect the win for Milwaukee. He also walked two in his third start of the season. Todd Coffey gave up a solo shot in the ninth, but was able to get out of a jam to pick up his second save of the year.

"Looper did a good job. Usually we hit him pretty good, but we couldn't muster any runs," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said.

Jayson Werth went 2-for-4 and had the lone run of the game for Philadelphia with a solo homer.

Joe Blanton (0-2) gave up three runs on eight hits with five strikeouts to take the loss for the Phillies, who won 11-4 in the opener of the series on Tuesday. Blanton dropped his ERA to 7.31.

Trailing 3-0, Philadelphia tried to come back in the ninth. Coffey started the frame by getting Ryan Howard to go down swinging, but allowed Werth to hit a solo homer over the center-field wall. Raul Ibanez followed with a single to left and was thrown out at second when Pedro Feliz grounded into a force out. Pinch-hitter Matt Stairs set up a first and third with two outs by stroking a single to right field. Coffey got pinch-hitter Chris Coste to go down swinging to seal the victory.

The first run of the game didn't come until the fifth when Hardy belted a homer for Milwaukee. After Cameron grounded out to begin the frame, Hardy drove a 3-2 changeup from Blanton over the wall in left. A Jason Kendall single was sandwiched between fly outs from Craig Counsell and Looper to end the inning.

The Brewers added two runs in the sixth to extend their lead to 3-0. Hart singled and Ryan Braun walked with one gone. Blanton got Prince Fielder to fly out, but allowed Cameron to stroke a two-run double down the left-field line. Hardy went down looking to end the inning.

Looper ran into a bit of trouble in the home half of the sixth, but was able to work his way out of the jam. After retiring the first two batters, Looper walked Howard and gave up an infield single to Werth. Ibanez lined out to right fielder Hart to end the frame, though.

Mark DiFelice and Carlos Villanueva retired the Phillies in order in the seventh and eighth inning, respectively.

Game Notes

Ibanez went 1-for-4 to improve his hitting streak to nine games...The last time Blanton faced the Brewers, he pitched the Phillies into the NLCS...Philadelphia won five of six versus Milwaukee last year, including a four-game sweep at home from September 11-14 that caused the Brewers to stumble down the finish and heading into the playoffs.
