PHILADELPHIA — Chase Utley and Aaron Rowand could rest easy for once.

Pat Burrell and Michael Bourn did enough at the plate to ease the loss of Philadelphia's injured All-Stars for a game.

Burrell homered and had three RBI, Bourn went 4-for-4 with two runs scored, Jamie Moyer allowed one run in seven innings and the Philadelphia Phillies won their first game without Utley, a rain-shortened 8-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday night.

"When we score runs and Jamie Moyer pitches like that, it's a boost for us," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said.

They'll need more games like this without Utley, their star second baseman, who could miss three to four weeks after undergoing surgery to have a pin placed in his broken right hand. Utley was struck by a pitch on Thursday, and losing his .336 average, 41 doubles, 17 home runs and 82 RBIs was a big blow for a team chasing New York in the NL East.

Because of Bourn, Utley's absence was hardly noticed against the NL-worst Pirates in a game that was called after a 61-minute delay following the seventh inning.

Burrell homered as part of a six-run third where the Phillies sent 12 batters to the plate. Bourn, playing for Rowand, had hits in each of the first three innings. Greg Dobbs also drove in two runs.

The Phillies have won six of seven as they try to remain in the playoff hunt.

Ronny Paulino had three hits and an RBI for the Pirates.

Staked to an 8-0 lead after three innings, Moyer (9-8) allowed six hits, struck out four and was credited with his 31st career complete game.

The Phillies touched starter John Van Benschoten (0-5) for two runs in the first inning. Van Benschoten loaded the bases with no out, then struck out Howard and Burrell. Dobbs, though, followed with a two-run single to right.

Pittsburgh has allowed eight first-inning runs in the last four games.

"We were fortunate to be out of the first inning trailing by only two," Pirates manager Jim Tracy said.
