The Philadelphia Phillies hit five solo home runs -- including three in the seventh inning -- and became the 12th team in major league history with a 30-homer foursome in Tuesday night’s 5-3 win over the Washington Nationals.

Raul Ibanez went long for the 29th and 30th times this season and Chase Utley hit No. 30, joining Ryan Howard (38) and Jayson Werth in Philadelphia’s 30-homer club for 2009. Werth hit his 32nd, and Carlos Ruiz got his ninth for the Phillies.
