12 Straight Wins for Phillies
The Philadelphia Phillies, despite a fine performance by Atlanta pitcher Rocky Edwards, grabbed a 3-2 win at Citizens Bank Park. Edwards allowed 1 run over 5 innings. Brad Townsend notched the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.1 innings. His record now sits at 7-8. Philadelphia, having won 12 in a row, is now 73-63.

Philadelphia took a 3-2 lead on Ernesto Almirón's 23rd home run of the season. The solo home run, which Almirón hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Atlanta pitcher Bobby Moore visibly frustrated.

"If you ever get this game figured out," said Atlanta manager Barry Larkin, "let me know."
