Brandon Marsh singled in the go-ahead run in the ninth inning as the visiting Philadelphia Phillies rallied for a wild 10-8 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday in the opener of a three-game series between division leaders.
Kyle Schwarber walked to open the ninth off Abner Uribe (2-2), who relieved to start the inning. J.T. Realmuto worked a one-out walk, with Brewers manager Pat Murphy ejected for arguing the call.
Marsh followed with an RBI single to right. Harrison Bader drove in another run with a bloop single to right.
Philadelphia went in front 8-6 in the eighth on RBI doubles by Bader and Bryson Stott, but the Brewers tied it in the bottom half against David Robertson (2-0) on Isaac Collins' pinch-hit, bases-loaded single with two outs.
Jhoan Duran pitched a perfect ninth for his 25th save in 28 opportunities.
The NL Central-leading Brewers, who swept a three-game series in Philadelphia from May 30-June 1, entered with a 6 1/2-game lead over the Cubs. The Phillies entered six games in front of the Mets in the NL East.
The Phillies erased a 5-1 deficit on Trea Turner's two-run triple in the fifth and three more runs in the sixth.
Rick Mears came on in the sixth and hit J.T Realmuto to open the inning. Marsh singled and Bader doubled to make it 5-4. Max Kepler and Edmundo Sosa followed with consecutive sacrifice flies for a 6-5 lead.
Milwaukee tied it with an unearned run in the bottom half. Caleb Durbin walked, advanced on a wild pitch, stole third, and scored when second baseman Stott bobbled Jackson Chourio's grounder.
The Brewers jumped on Taijuan Walker for three runs in the first. Brice Turang opened with his 17th homer. William Contreras doubled, Christian Yelich walked and Blake Perkins delivered a two-run double.
Durbin led off the second with his 10th homer to put the Brewers up 4-0. Bryce Harper answered with his 23rd homer in fourth to make it 4-1.
Chourio's sacrifice fly in the bottom half made it 5-1.
Jacob Misiorowski got the start for Milwaukee. He faced one batter over the minimum through three innings, allowed a single run on Harper's homer in the fourth, but was removed after Turner's one-out, two-run triple in the fifth. He allowed three earned runs and six hits in 4 1/3 innings. The rookie fanned four, walked one and exited after 73 pitches.
