Extending their winning streak to six games, the Phillies erupted for four runs in the eighth inning to subdue the Cubs, 7-3. The game was tied, 3-3, when Manny Trillo began the winning surge with a one-out double.

After Bake McBride was intentionally walked, Keith Moreland sent Trillo home with a double. Gary Matthews followed with a two-run single before Larry Bowa completed the rally with a run-scoring single. [The Sporting News]
