MILWAUKEE, May 15 (UPI) -- A homer by Raul Ibanez put Philadelphia in front in the fourth Friday and Shane Victorino had three RBI in helping the Phillies overpower Milwaukee 9-5.
The Phillies had three home runs in winning for the seventh time in nine games.
Prince Fielder, Jim Edmonds and George Kottaras all hit second-inning solo homers to rally Milwaukee into a 3-3 tie, but Ibanez opened the fourth with a home run off Randy Wolf (3-3) to put the Phillies in front for good.
Victorino added a two-run triple later in the fourth and then had an RBI single in the sixth.
Ryan Howard and Chase Utley also homered for the Phillies and Jamie Moyer (5-2) picked up the victory despite giving up five runs over 6 1/3 innings.
The Brewers fell to 4-12 at home this season.
