Phils top Mets

The Phillies beat the Mets, 6-5 in 10 innings Saturday in a game that featured each team receiving 9 walks, and fittingly, that's how it ended. Shane Victorino drew a bases loaded walk to force home the winning run. Carlos Ruiz came off the DL and was 0 for 2 with 2 walks, and Ryan Howard was 1 for 5 as Philadelphia evened their series with New York at a game apiece. Raul Ibanez hit his 8th home run for the Phils.

In Atlanta, Michael Bourn was 1 for 5, his 3rd triple, with an RBI as the Astros beat the Braves, 5-1. It was RBI #5 for Bourn, who is hitting .278.
