The Phils continued their winning ways this afternoon. Vance Worley seemed to run out of gas towards the end of his outing, but did his job, allowing just 4 runs on 7 hits while striking out 7. Early on Raul Ibanez launched a solo homer in the 2nd inning and Jimmy Rollins ripped a 2 run single in the 5th inning for a 3-2 lead. That might have been enough to win but Worley fell off in 6th and the Phils found themselves down 5-3 heading into the 8th. There with 2 out and 1 on Ibanez crushed his 2nd homer of the day to tie things at 5 and effectively force extra innings. There in the 10th, Ibanez struck again with a 1 out double to score Hunter Pence for the 6-5 win. With the win the Phils move to 68-39 overall and 6 games up in the NL East.
