The Brewers beat the Phils

It seems that it will be difficult for the Phillies to clinch the National League East this weekend at Miller Park. The Brewers beat the Phils on Friday, as left-hander Cliff Lee allowed nine hits and seven runs in six innings.

Philadelphia's magic number remains four. The Phillies got something offensively at the early time. Ryan Howard knocked in a pair of runs in the fourth inning and right-hander Brad Lidge appears to have lost his closer's job again. He replaced Lee in the seventh inningq and gave up a run on two hits.
