CINCINNATI (AP) — Phillip Ervin homered leading off the 11th inning, and the Reds beat Philadelphia 4-3.
The loss dropped the Phillies four games behind the Chicago Cubs for the NL’s second wild card.
Ervin hit an opposite-field drive to right off Nick Vincent that barely eluded Bryce Harper’s attempt at a leaping catch.
Ervin’s sixth home run this season and the second game-ending homer of his career gave the Reds their second straight win and a four-game split.
