Alfredo Simon picked up his fifth win of the season, shutting the Phillies out over 7 2/3 innings as the Reds won 3-0 on Friday. The Phillies' offense could not figure out Simon, who lowered his ERA to 2.45 with the strong effort. The right-hander allowed only five hits and a walk while striking out a season-high eight. Quite a nice rebound after posting his worst start of the season last Saturday against the Rockies. Simon will go for win number six next week on the road against the Nationals.
