Steve Hargan filled the bases on walks to Greg Luzinski, Tommy Hutton and Ted Sizemore, then passed Davey Johnson, forcing in the winning run as the Phillies ended their five-game string of setbacks with a 3-2 decision over the Braves in 14 innings. Luzinski gave Phillies the lead with a two-run homer (No. 33) in the third, but the Braves tied the game on a two-run homer by Jeff Burroughs (No. 35) in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
