Padres 2 Phillies 0
Joey Hamilton (11-11) pulls his season record even with 7 shutout innings, sprinkling 5 hits around and making 2 runs stand up, with Randy Myers and Trevor Hoffman ensuring victory with a perfect 8th and 9th.
Steve Finley, struggling offensively all season, but playing stellar CF and providing leadership in the clubhouse, smacked his 11th home run of the year deep into right field in the first inning.
Chris Gomez doubled home Jim Leyritz for an insurance run in the fourth, but proved unnecessary.
News and Notes - With the RF tandem of Rivera and Sweeny struggling in Gwynn's absence, and his return unknown at this time, a trade before the 8/31 deadline is anticipated.
