In the top of the 10th, Guzmon loaded the bases with a Castillo single, Hanley error, intential walk to Braun, and a walk to Hawpe, driving in a run. Trevor Hoffman took care of the 10th for the save.

Then Tommy Gun Hanson had a meltdown – he gave up 7 runs in the bottom of the 5th, a majority of the damage done by Ryan Howard with a Grand Slam Home Run. In the top of the 6th, Fukudome pulled on down the line to make the game 7 -7. A solo home run from Derrick Lee grabbed the lead at 8-7 in the top of the 7th.
