The Philadelphia Phillies had to overcome a fine effort from Houston pitcher Fernando Rijo to grab a narrow 3-2 win at Citizens Bank Park. Rijo went 6 innings and allowed 1 run. Philadelphia pitcher Dennys Reyes got the win. He's now 2-2. John Lloyd was tagged with the loss. Philadelphia goes to 31-38, Houston to 45-24.

Evan Longoria, who finished 3rd in the NL in doubles with 52 last year, aided the Philadelphia cause with a run-scoring double in the bottom of the eighth. For the game, the third baseman went 2 for 3 with a double and was hit by a pitch.

Longoria said his team "played with focus."
