    This is the time of year when manager Charlie Manuel would like to see his Philadelphia Phillies playing their best baseball.

    Instead, they dropped their second straight game against the worst team in baseball on Tuesday night to keep them from wrapping up a playoff spot.

    Clint Barmes hit a three-run homer and J.A. Happ pitched six solid innings against his former team as the Houston Astros beat Philadelphia 5-2.
