The Phillies seem to be reviving after their slow start. Jimmy Rollins hit a leadoff homer and fell a double shy of the cycle, and Philadelphia had a season-high 20 hits in an 11-4 win over the Houston Astros on Monday night. Chase Utley connected for his fourth home run, a drive that cleared the brick wall that stands about 20 feet beyond the 401-foot sign on the center-field fence.
