Phillies Net 2-1 Win
The Philadelphia Phillies claimed a close win over the Houston Astros, due in large part to J J Thobe. The Philadelphia right-hander pitched a great game to secure the 2-1 win. The first-place Phillies improved to 33-14.

Mark Loretta, who finished 3rd in the AL in hits with 220 in 1997, had a direct impact on the outcome. Loretta contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put Philadelphia up, 2-0.

After the game, Loretta told the Philadelphia Today, "Like I've always said, the challenge is what makes this game worth playing."
