PHILADELPHIA – The Phillies had no runs and only one hit through eight innings on what was a frustrating day in the cold at the plate. 

Down to their last out, the Phillies rallied in the ninth to score three runs to force extra innings in an eventual 5-4 loss in 10 innings.

The Phillies were given an additional lifeline when Rangers first baseman Jake Burger misplayed a foul popup with two outs in the swirling winds.
