Chase Utley launched a two-run homer in the eighth inning on Friday, breaking a 1-1 tie and leading the Phillies to a 3-1 victory over the Cardinals.
The towering drive off Barret Browning was his only hit in four trips to the plate, but made him the hero of the night. He’s hitting just .246 over his first 122 at-bats, but has shown that the power is still present with eight homers and 18 RBI.
