Brewers light up Sullivan and beat Phillies

After the Phillies officially hired Andy MacPhail to become the team's president after the season, the new executive saw first-hand how much work needs to be done.

Trailing by 4-1 through four innings, the Milwaukee Brewers came back to defeat the Phillies, 7-4, on Monday night in a battle of baseball's loss leaders before 18,423 at Citizens Bank Park.

The Phillies (27-51) have lost four of the last five since their three-game winning streak last week.

McPhail will serve as a special assistant to president Pat Gillick for three months before he takes over, and his main task will be to determine how many true keepers the Phillies have.
