Rodrigo Lopez walked off the mound to a standing ovation from a sellout crowd in the home of the defending World Series champions.

Lopez took a three-hitter into the seventh inning, helping the Philadelphia Phillies snap a six-game home losing streak with a 7-2 victory over the New York Mets on Friday night.
