    Donnie Murphy has done it all against Philadelphia except call his own shot.

    That could be on the way for the sudden slugger.

    "All of a sudden, Murphy's become Babe Ruth," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said.

    Murphy hit a tiebreaking three-run shot in the ninth inning for his second homer of the game, lifting the Chicago Cubs to a 5-2 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday night.
