Phil Nevin batted in 6 runs to lead Philadelphia to a win over Houston. The final score was 11-7. Nevin chipped in 1 single and 2 home runs. Seth Greisinger went 5.2 innings, allowing 3 runs on 6 hits. The right-hander, who was drafted in the 3rd round of the 1996 draft, struck out 4 and walked 2. With the win, he's now 1-0 this season. John Wetteland got the save, the 17th for him this season.

With Philadelphia leading 5-3 in the bottom of the sixth, Nevin hit a slider from Bob Wickman for a grand slam home run. It was his 18th home run of the season and put the Phillies ahead, 9-3.

"We just try to have good at-bats, whether we're winning, losing, or tied," said Nevin.

Philadelphia is now 66-71, while Houston is 90-49.
