Phillies Win, Menendez scores 3 runs
Phillies third baseman Matt Menendez put his stamp on his team's 12-6 win over the Atlanta Braves. Menendez went 2-3 with a home run, a double, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3 for Philadelphia in the contest. The winner in relief was Rick Whitley. He is now 13-6. The right-hander allowed 3 runs on 5 hits in 5 innings. Philadelphia has run its win streak to 4 straight.

Mike Lewis had a big 3-run home run for the Phillies in the bottom of the third inning. With Philadelphia leading 4-3 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a splitter from 24-year old right-handed pitcher Tim Hall and punished it. The result was his 7th home run of the season, which put the Phillies on top, 7-3.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Philadelphia skipper John Lucidi.
