PHILADELPHIA – Scott Hairston homered and hit a go-ahead two-run double in the eighth inning, helping the San Diego Padres overcome a six-run deficit to beat the Philadelphia Phillies 8-7 on Friday night.
The World Series champions honored legendary broadcaster Harry Kalas in a moving ceremony before the game. The Hall of Fame announcer died Monday in Washington after collapsing in the broadcast booth before a game against the Nationals. He was 73.
Chase Utley, one of Kalas’ favorite players, hit a three-run homer, but the Phillies got another shaky outing from Cole Hamels and setup man Ryan Madson (0-1) gave up three runs in the eighth.
