Eagles Earn 7-1 Home Win
Riding the 4-hit performance of the 34-year old center fielder Kareem Taylor, the Philadelphia Eagles stopped the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 7-1. The win makes Philadelphia 22-21.

The game turned with no one out in the bottom of the fourth. That's when Taylor hit a solo home run off Antonio Reynosa. It propelled the Eagles into the lead, 2-1.

Said losing manager Justin Wilson: "The at-bats, obviously, needed to be better."
