The Phillies beat the Nationals again on Saturday night by the same score they beat them by on Friday night 4-2, and run their win streak to three games. The Phillies move one game closer to the .500 mark at 60-67, while the Nationals drop to 77-49.  Roy Halladay went seven innings to pick up his eighth win, and Jonathan Papelbon picked up his 29th save, and Antonio Bastardo struck out the side in the eighth, which probably made Charlie Manuel feel better. John Mayberry Jr. had a big offensive night with a HR and 3 RBI’s. Cliff Lee will take the mound on Sunday as the Phillies go for the sweep.

Star of the Game:

John Mayberry Jr., Phillies – 2/3, HR, 3 RBI’s
