The Phillies scored first in the second inning when Edmundo Sosa singled home Nick Castellanos. Johan Rojas then singled home David Dahl to make it 2-0, Phillies. Dahl, called up earlier in the day, added a solo home run in the fourth inning.
Featured Card: The Phillies played a highlight video montage between the first and second innings prior to his Hoskins' at-bat. He was given a warm and lengthy standing ovation by the crowd and the Phillies are the absolute best at honoring their former players. The game couldn't have been scripted any better, as the Phillies won, but Hoskins accounted for the only Brewers run with a solo home run in the seventh. Any other game and Dahl would have gotten the featured card, but this night belonged to Hoskins.

Michael Rucker (rhp) was moved to the 60-day Injured List to make room on the 40-man roster for Dahl.
