Phils, Halladay shut down Mets 2-1

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - April 30, 2011

Halladay allowed one run and walked one while striking out eight to lead the Phillies to their third straight victory. Philadelphia went 17-5 in April 1993.

The NL Cy Young award winner cruised in the beginning of the game- his first 18 pitches were all strikes before missing high with a fastball to Jose Reyes.

It was his seventh straight win over the Mets dating back to the 2006 season.

Mets starter Jonathon Niese (2-3) took the loss after Placido Polanco's sacrifice fly in the seventh broke a 1-1 tie.
