In his 20th career double-digit strikeout game, Cliff Lee went 7.2 innings allowing six hits and just one walk. Unfortunately, Cliff gave up a 2-run double to Herrera with two outs in the 8th inning, the game-winning runs for the LA Dodgers.
The Phils' only run came in the bottom of the first, as Hunter Pence singled to left field scoring Jimmy Rollins.
Cliff Lee remains winless heading into the second week of June.
