    - Looking for every extra edge in a playoff chase, the Philadelphia Phillies tried most everything -- stealing and bunting, plus plenty of pinch-hitters and pitchers.

    On and on they went, mixing and matching against the New York Mets for so long the teams actually began to run out of baseballs.

    In the end, the Phillies had just enough.

    Maikel Franco , Scott Kingery and Adam Haseley homered as Philadelphia overcame an early deficit and outlasted the Mets 10-7 Sunday to further tighten the NL wild-card race.
