The Phillies smashed four homers, capping their attack with a circuit clout by Greg Luzinski in the ninth inning, to defeat the Giants, 7-6. The Phillies' other homers included a drive by Deron Johnson with two men on base and a pair of solo swats by Don Money. Dave Kingman drove in three of the Giants' runs with a single, homer and infield out. [The Sporting News]
