Jayson Werth homered twice and Pedro Feliz and Shane Victorino also connected for Philadelphia, which combined with Los Angeles to tie the record of seven homers in a postseason game.
Andre Ethier, James Loney and Orlando Hudson went deep for the Dodgers on Wednesday night against Phillies starter Cole Hamels in Game 5 of the NL championship series.
It was the fifth time seven homers were hit a postseason game.
