Willie Montanez homered with two men on base in the eighth inning to lift the Phillies to a 7-4 victory over the Reds. A walk to Denny Doyle, forceout by Larry Bowa and singles by Tim McCarver and Deron Johnson tied the score at 4-4 in the eighth before Montanez connected for his circuit clout. [The Sporting News]
