PHILADELPHIA — Buster Posey had his first multi-homer game in nearly five years, Alex Dickerson and Wilmer Flores connected during a six-run eighth inning and the San Francisco Giants muscled past the Philadelphia Phillies 10-7. 

Tommy La Stella also homered for San Francisco, which got all of its run via the long ball. 

The Giants have 25 homers through 17 games, a surprising surge for a club that’s finished in the bottom third of the league in homers in eight of the past 10 seasons. 

Dickerson’s three-run shot off reliever Connor Brogdon allowed the Giants to grab their first lead of the game at 7-6.

The teams will finish their three game set today at 1:05 p.m.
