Lee (6-5) passed teammate Roy Halladay for the league lead in strikeouts, recording seven to up his season total to 107. He allowed four hits and one run while walking two.
Utley gave Philadelphia the early lead with a two-run double in the first and provided some insurance with a two-run homer in the eighth. Shane Victorino had three hits, scored three runs and drove in one.
Reds 10 Giants 2: In San Francisco, Mike Leake pitched eight scoreless innings and also got two hits off Tim Lincecum as Cincinnati gave the San Francisco ace one of his worst beatings ever.
Brandon Phillips hit a two-run double and scored twice and Joey Votto knocked the two-time Cy Young Award winner out with an RBI double in the fifth to give the Reds their second win in three games in San Francisco.
Lincecum (5-5) matched his career worst by allowing seven runs in four-plus innings, marking the first time since his rookie year in 2007 that he had allowed seven earned runs in a game.
Brewers 5 Cardinals 3: In Milwaukee, Rickie Weeks hit a go-ahead, two-run homer and Zack Greinke outpitched fellow Cy Young Award winner Chris Carpenter to lift Milwaukee over St. Louis.
The surging Brewers (37-28) pulled within a half-game of St. Louis for the NL Central lead and moved nine games over .500 for the first time in more than two years.
Prince Fielder hit his seventh homer in the last eight games and Corey Hart added a two-run double for the Brewers, who keep improving on their major league-best home record.
Lance Berkman homered off Greinke (6-1) to give St. Louis a 2-1 lead in the sixth, but Milwaukee scored four times in the bottom half off Carpenter (1-6) on Weeks’ shot and Hart’s double.
Dodgers 11 Rockies 7: In Denver, pinch-hitter Casey Blake broke a tie with a three-run double in the sixth, Ted Lilly pitched five effective innings and Los Angeles snapped a three-game skid.
Aaron Miles and Jamey Carroll each had four hits as the Dodgers banged out a season-high 18. With the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth, Tony Gwynn Jr. made a diving catch in left field for the final out — the second time he has done that this season.
Lilly (5-5) scattered four hits before being lifted for Blake, who didn’t start because of a sore neck.

Braves 6 Astros 3, 10 innings: In Houston, Brian McCann hit a three-run homer in the 10th inning, lifting Atlanta over Houston for its fifth straight victory.

The Astros have lost seven of eight.
Diamondbacks 9 Marlins 5: In Miami, Kelly Johnson’s three-run double highlighted a six-run fourth inning and Arizona sent Florida to its ninth loss in 10 games.

Chris Coghlan , Gaby Sanchez and Mike Stanton homered for the Marlins.
Javier Vazquez (3-6) was chased in the fourth — an inning after striking out the side — when Arizona sent 10 batters to the plate and scored six runs.
Nationals 2 Padres 1: In San Diego, John Lannan pitched effectively into the seventh inning and Washington beat San Diego to win consecutive road games for the first time in a month.
Lannan (4-5) allowed highly touted rookie Anthony Rizzo’s first major league homer and escaped a bases-loaded jam in the sixth. The left-hander gave up six hits.
The Nationals scored twice in the first on Danny Espinosa’s RBI double and Wilson Ramos’ run-scoring single. Washington had dropped 13 of 18 away from home.
The club has won successive games in San Diego for the first time September 1999, when the franchise was located in Montreal.
