A double by John Vukovich with the bases loaded sparked the Phillies to a 3-2 victory over the Dodgers. The Phillies began their scoring with a run in the second inning on a single by Deron Johnson, double by Don Money and grounder by Willie Montanez. Johnson walked in the fourth and, after singles by Money and Montanez, Vukovich doubled to drive in two runs. [The Sporting News]
