Phillies regain NL East lead, beat Nats

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Tim Redding walks off the mound as he is relieved in the fifth inning of a baseball game against the Philadelphia Phillies, Wednesday, July 30, 2008 in Washington. Philadelphia won 8-5.

It was 88 degrees when 45-year-old Jamie Moyer’s first pitch of the evening was redirected over the out-of-town scoreboard. Three batters later, he gave up a double. That was followed by another homer. And then Moyer didn’t allow another hit until the fifth inning, by which time his Philadelphia Phillies had provided a big lead.
