PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 25 (UPI) -- Tony Campana started a five-run 18th-inning rally with a two-out walk early Sunday, giving the Arizona Diamondbacks a 12-7 win over the Philadelphia Phillies.
The uprising started after the Phillies turned to outfielder Casper Wells (0-1) to pitch, having already gone through nine pitchers in the game. Wells, who pitched an inning earlier this year while with the Chicago White Sox, got the first two outs in the 18th before Campana walked on five pitches.
Adam Eaton followed with a double to center and Campana, who was running on the pitch, scored without a throw.
Paul Goldschmidt was intentionally walked and Martin Prado added a single that scored Eaton. Didi Gregorius walked to load the bases before a single by Gerardo Parra knocked in two runs and Wells was lifted for infielder John McDonald, who gave up two singles -- one scoring a run -- before recording the final out.
