The Phillies rallied for three runs to tie the score in the ninth inning and then beat the Braves, 8-5, when Ollie Brown came up with two men on base in the 12th and hit his first homer of the season. Rowland Office hit a two-run pinch-double for the Braves in the sixth and, remaining in the game, also drove in a run with a triple in the eighth to pace the Braves to a 5-2 lead.
