his second homer -- a three-run shot -- in the ninth as the Phillies scored six times in the inning. Pierre added three
hits.
New York starter Dillon Gee was in line for his third consecutive victory, but Bobby Parnell gave up Carlos Ruiz’s pinch-hit game-tying homer with two out in the seventh. Ruiz connected for his seventh homer of the season after Brian Schneider doubled off Gee, knotting the score at 3-3.
