* at Philadelphia 4, Houston 3: Pedro Feliz's run-scoring double in the bottom of the ninth inning capped the Phillies' four-run rally. Astros starter Shawn Chacon gave up only four singles in eight impressive innings before handing the ball to closer Jose Valverde. But pinch-hitter Chris Snelling hit a leadoff homer against Valverde (2-1) and Chase Utley was hit by a pitch. After Ryan Howard struck out, Pat Burrell tied the score, 3-3, with a two-run homer to right.
