His chase for 600 on hold for a night, Ken Griffey Jr. could only watch as Chase Utley connected for the fifth straight game. Utley hit his major league-leading 21st homer to lead the Philadelphia Phillies to a 5-4 victory over Cincinnati on Monday night. Griffey was out of the Reds lineup because of general soreness in his 38-year-old body. ``He's one of the best around,'' Reds manager Dusty Baker said of Utley. It's the second time this season that the Phillies second baseman has homered in five consecuti |

| Philadelphia, PA (Best E Casino) - Chase Utley continued his power surge with his fifth home run in five games then helped save the game with a diving stab, as the Philadelphia Phillies held off the Cincinnati Reds, 5-4, in the initial contest of a four-game set. A warm night in Philadelphia brought the bats out at hitter-friendly Citizens Bank Park -- the site of five home runs in the game's first five frames. One of those came from Philadelphia's likeliest source as of late. While one didn't come off the bat of |

| (Best E Casino) - Veteran lefty Jamie Moyer will attempt to stay perfect for his career against the Florida Marlins today, when his Philadelphia Phillies host the Fish in the finale of a three-game weekend series between the National League East Division's top two teams. Moyer, a 45-year-old native of suburban Philadelphia, is a pristine 7-0 in seven lifetime starts against the Marlins, while posting a 3.05 earned run average in 44 1/3 innings and walking just 12 batters with 29 strikeouts.

Chase Utley and the Philadelphia Phillies got off to a fast start with a seven-run second against the Florida Marlins. The Chicago Cubs erased the Colorado Rockies' big lead with a six-run seventh inning.

| Philadelphia, PA (Best E Casino) - The Florida Marlins lost star shortstop Hanley Ramirez to an apparent hand injury in the opener of their three-game set with the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday night. Ramirez took a line drive off his left hand in the fourth inning. He was unable to snare Shane Victorino's liner, which bounced off the hand and into shallow center field. Ramirez was able to recover and flip the ball to second for a fielder's choice, but dropped to his knees in pain after the play. After a meeting |

| (Best E Casino) - The Philadelphia Phillies weren't focused on the revenge factor of their recently concluded series with the Colorado Rockies. The Phils realize they have bigger fish to fry; literally. Entering their three-game set with Colorado, Philadelphia found itself 2 1/2 games back of the Florida Marlins for first place in the National League East. A three-game sweep and season-best four-game win streak later, and the Phillies are now just a half-game back of the Marlins, who they host for three games star |
