Brewers need twelfth to take down the Phils

The Milwaukee Brewers beat the Phillie sin a 12 inning game. This was the first Phillies game this year that took more than three hours.

The Phillies came into the ninth inning trailing the Brewers 3-2. The Phillies Pete Orr hit a single to left field which scored Carlos Ruiz all the way from second base.

In the tenth inning the Phillies closer Jose Contreas pitched 123 inning but in the bottom of the inning the Phillies couldn't score.

In the eleventh inning still nobody scored which sent it to the twelfth inning and the runs just all came pouring in and they pulled Contreas after the first run and Kyle Kendrick gave up two runs.

The Phillies started out the inning with a single by Shane Victorino. Next up Placido Polanco who had a great night so far he was 2-4 coming into this at bat. Then he flied out to the right fielder then Rollins got on first because of an error by the second basemen. Then Ryan Howard popped out right into the shift and Ben Francisco grounded out to end the game.
