Worth noting

• The Phillies entered Tuesday having homered in 10 straight games at Citizens Bank Park, their longest such streak since 2009. They were 7-3 in their last 10 home games and had won five straight.

• Though closer Jonathan Papelbon blew his first save of the season on Monday night, the Phillies rallied in the ninth and entered Tuesday 27-0 when leading after eight innings this season.

• Carlos Zambrano pitched seven scoreless innings for Lehigh Valley on Tuesday. He struck out six and walked one in his second appearance with the team. He now has a 0.95 ERA in five Minor League starts since signing with the Phillies on May 15.
