The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 9-2, snapping a two-game losing streak. LA put the hurt on Jamie Moyer, tagging him for seven runs in less than five innings of work. Randy Wolf was solid against his former team, allowing only one run on three hits and striking out 8 in six innings. James Loney had his first homer of the season, a three-run dinger, and Casey Blake had a two-run blast, his seventh home run. Loney finished with 5 RBI, and Blake finished with 3. Juan Pierre had a single, double, and two steals, and Orlando Hudson doubled twice and scored a run. Russell Martin and Matt Kemp both scored twice. Jimmy Rollins and Raul Ibanez both had solo-homers for the Phillies.
Joe Torre was chosen by Philly's manager Charlie Manuel to be part of his coaching staff in the 2009 All-Star Game in St. Louis. Torre played for the Cardinals during his professional career, and also managed them for six seasons before he joined the Yankees.
