PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Carlos Ruiz's surprise dash for home overshadowed his big night at the plate. Ruiz drove in a career-best four runs and stole home to lead the Philadelphia Phillies past the Cincinnati Reds 11-4 on Tuesday.
"He hits the ball hard and he has a lot of power for a little guy," Philadelphia manager Charlie Manuel said.
Ryan Howard, Shane Victorino and Chase Utley homered for the Phillies, who finished with 16 hits and gave Kyle Kendrick plenty of support in his third start since replacing injured Freddy Garcia in the rotation.
