Phillies Surrender Lead In Eighth Inning As Brewers Win 4-3
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Aramis Ramirez drove in three runs and Ryan Braun had four hits to lead the Milwaukee Brewers over the Philadelphia Phillies 4-3 Tuesday night.
Hernan Perez tripled and had a pair of hits for the Brewers, who have won six of eight.
Carlos Ruiz homered for Philadelphia, which has lost five of six to drop its major league-worst record to 27-52.
Before the game, the Phillies said Pete Mackanin will remain their manager for the rest of the season. Mackanin took over on an interim basis last Friday after Ryne Sandberg resigned.
The announcement came a day after Philadelphia named longtime baseball executive Andy MacPhail its president in waiting. MacPhail will spend the next three months evaluating the organization before replacing Pat Gillick, who helped pick him.
