The Phillies were faced with a tough test last night, and up and down the entire roster, they responded with an 11-4 victory. They hit Max Scherzer early and often, and dipped into the D'Backs pen early in the series. Tonight, they face another challenge in Randy Johnson, who has historically dominated the Phillies throughout his career. It's tough to put much stock into numbers like that since they're against different players and lineups, but success is success. Without Ryan Howard in the lineup, some other guys are going to have to step up.

Jamie Moyer delivered a very good start last night, and Adam Eaton will look to continue his mediocre start to the season tonight. He hasn't been quite as awful in 2008, but he's had his moments. Arizona is actually without Hudson tonight, so their lineup isn't as strong as I predicted.
