Phillies Rally Late to Clip New York
The Philadelphia Phillies besoiled an otherwise fine performance by New York designated hitter Héctor Cabrera by beating the Mets, 6-5, at Citizens Bank Park. Cabrera went 2-4 with 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Philadelphia reliever Alex Claudio picked up the win, upping his record to 1-3. Pat Gross took the loss. By defeating New York, the second-place Phillies improved to 50-48.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Philadelphia third baseman Maikel Franco, facing António Seroseres, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Phillies the 6-5 win.

In postgame comments to the Philadelphia Citizen, Franco said, "If the effort is there, the wins will come."
