Moreno blows it in rare save chance
(4/20/2009)Ryan Howard started Philadelphia's winning rally with a leadoff single against Edwin Moreno, and Raul Ibanez followed by hitting a 2-0 pitch into the right-field stands Sunday. "It was a changeup," said Ibanez, who signed a free-agent deal with the Phillies in the offseason. "I thought it was out off the bat but I was worried it wouldn't stay straight and fair. I'm just glad it did." Padres manager Bud Black had to use Moreno (0-1) in the ninth because closer Heath Bell had worked three consecutive days. Moreno had not allowed an earned run in his first six appearances this season. "A couple of late homers in the game hurt us," Black said. Ibanez, who has four career game-ending homers, went 2-for-4. Clay Condrey (2-0) pitched a scoreless inning to earn the win as Philadelphia ended a three-game skid. "I got behind in the count and he got a good pitch to hit," Moreno said. "He's a good hitter and it happens."
