Phillies Rally For 6-2 Win
Starting pitcher Kirk Gilbert held up his part of the bargain, helping the Philadelphia Phillies stymie the Kansas City Royals, 6-2. The winner in relief was John Willett. He is now 2-1. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 2 innings. The second-place Royals have dropped 4 straight games.

Philadelphia used a clutch hit from Raúl Hernández to get the win. The pinch hitter drilled a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Phillies ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"If I go out there and help the team win, that's all you can do," said Gilbert.
