Bush loses no-hit bid in eighth as Brewers bash Phillies

Baseball Betting Lines

04/23/2009 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ryan Braun and Bill Hall belted homers, while Dave Bush took a no-hitter into the eighth and pitched a solid 7 2/3 innings to lead the Milwaukee Brewers past the Philadelphia Phillies, 6-1, in the rubber match of a three-game set at Citizens Bank Park.

Bush carried a no-hitter into the home half of the eighth inning and retired pinch-hitter Greg Dobbs on a grounder to lead off. Pinch-hitter Matt Stairs then ruined Bush's hopes by belting a 3-1 cutter into the upper deck in right field. Bush was replaced by reliever Mitch Stetter after retiring Jimmy Rollins and giving up a single to Shane Victorino. Chase Utley grounded out to end the inning.

The 29-year-old Bush (1-0) allowed just one run on two hits with four strikeouts and three walks. Bush, who was attempting to become the second player in club history to toss a no-hitter, lowered his ERA to 3.86.

Braun went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer for the Brewers, who won 3-1 on Wednesday. Prince Fielder went 2-for-4 with three RBI.

Phillies starting pitcher Cole Hamels left the tilt in the fourth after being hit on the left shoulder by a Fielder line drive. Hamels (0-2), who was diagnosed with a left shoulder contusion, gave up two runs on four hits to go along with six strikeouts.

The Phillies, who posted an 11-4 victory in the opening game of the series on Tuesday, finished with just two hits and lost for the fifth time in their last seven games.
