Tony Clark hit a sacrifice fly in the second inning, and Connor Jackson had a two-run double in the fifth, both off Chad Reineke (1-1).

Brandon Lyon pitched the ninth, allowing Edgar Gonzalez’s two-out RBI single.

The Phillies, who entered 11â2 games behind the NL East-leading New York Mets, blew an eighth-inning lead for the third time in nine days.

San Francisco – Emmanuel Burriss scored the winning run on a wild pitch in the bottom of the ninth inning.
