Franco, Herrera homer to lift Phillies over Brewers 10-6

MILWAUKEE -- Maikel Franco hit his third homer in two days, Odubel Herrera homered and reached base five times and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Milwaukee Brewers 10-6 on Saturday night.

Franco hit his fifth homer and drove in four runs after hitting two homers in a 5-2 win over Milwaukee on Friday night.

Phillies right-hander Charlie Morton exited in the second inning after straining his left hamstring running to first on a sacrifice attempt. Brett Oberholtzer (1-0) replaced Morton.

Franco hit a go-ahead, three-run homer in the fourth inning off Chase Anderson (1-2).
