The slam was the sixth of Braun's career, making him the Brewers' all-time leader, and his first since August 2015 against Aaron Harang and the Phillies. It came on a hanging slider from Phillies right-hander Nick Pivetta, who struck out each of the first four Brewers hitters he faced Friday, then saw eight straight reach safely.
Starting with Domingo Santana's one-out double in the second inning, the Brewers went double, single, single, homer, walk, single, walk, homer for an eight-run rally that matched their biggest inning this season.
