	<title>Phillies 7, Mets 2: Hardly first rate</title>

Not given how they played. And not if they&amp;#8217;re going to be shut down by retreads  Rodrigo Lopez  and  Chan Ho Park . 

 A 7-2 stinker against the Phillies on Friday night at Citizens Bank Park prevented a three-way tie atop the NL East. Instead, Philadelphia leads the Marlins by a game and the Mets and Braves by two games. Philadelphia had entered the series having lost six straight at home and 12 of 15 overall.
