MLB: Milwaukee 3, Philadelphia 2

MILWAUKEE, Sept. 11 (UPI) -- Nyjer Morgan and Ryan Braun each delivered seventh-inning RBI Sunday, rallying the Milwaukee Brewers to a 3-2 victory over Philadelphia.

Trailing 2-1 in the seventh, Corey Hart smacked a two-out double off Phillies starter Vance Worley (11-2) and came home with the tying run when Morgan followed with his own two-bagger.

Braun then grounded a single up the middle, sending Morgan home with the go-ahead run.

Yovani Gallardo (16-10) earned the victory, yielding only two runs on three hits over seven innings and fanning 12 for the National League Central-leading Brewers, who salvaged one win in a four-game set against the Phillies and broke a five-game skid.

Francisco Rodriguez gave up a pair of hits but no runs in the eighth and John Axford survived a shaky ninth for his 42nd save.

Worley suffered his first loss in more than three months as the NL East-leading Phillies saw their six-game winning streak snapped. He ended up allowing three runs on eight hits over 6 2/3 frames.

Shane Victorino and Ryan Howard each hits sixth-inning solo homers to account for the Phillies' runs.
