Philadelphia pinch hitter Keith Moreland was a significant contributor in his team's 6-5 triumph over the Chicago Cubs. He went 1 for 1 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Philadelphia. Rawly Eastwick notched his 3rd save in 3 chances. Philadelphia now has a 3-game win streak.

Philadelphia needed the clutch hitting of Bake McBride to notch the win. The center fielder hammered a solo home run in the top of the 11th inning to put the Phillies on top, 6-5. For the game, McBride had 1 home run and 1 single in 6 at-bats.

In postgame comments, Moreland said, "I think we gave the fans their money's worth."

Kingman homered off LHP Tug McGraw in the bottom of the ninth to send it to extra frames.
