Howard’s Slam, 6 RBIs, Lead Phillies Over Mets
PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Ryan Howard hit two homers, including a grand slam, and drove in six runs to back rookie fill-in Vance Worley and lead the Philadelphia Phillies to a 10-3 victory over the New York Mets on Friday night.
Howard launched a two-run shot into the second deck in right field off starter Mike Pelfrey in the fourth inning to give Philadelphia a 2-0 lead. After making contact, Howard dropped his bat and stared in admiration for a couple of seconds at the 427-foot drive before trotting around the bases.
The big slugger is batting .412 (14 for 34) with three homers and six RBIs against Pelfrey.
