The Phillies score six more times in the eighth inning to blast the Reds 22-1. Victorino and Utley drove in four runs each, while Werth added five RBI. The team’s 22 runs came on 21 hits, four of them homers. They drew seven walks and one hit by pitch, so they didn’t leave too many men on base. It looks like the Reds just started putting the ball in play as Hamels struck out just two in his seven innings of work with no walks. That evens his record at five and lowers his ERA to 4.70.

The Phillies haven’t scored that many runs in over 20 years:

It was the most runs by Philadelphia since a 26-7 win over the New York Mets at the old Veterans Stadium on June 11, 1985. The 22 runs were the most in the six-year history of Citizens Bank Park.
