The Astros beat the Phillies 4-2 in a 16-inning marathon game on Tuesday night.

Philadelphia pitcher Roy Oswalt actually played left field and grounded out to end the game.

Oswalt became the first Phillies pitcher to play a position in the field in 39 years when Ryan Howard was ejected in the 14th inning.

"I'm not sure what I think about the whole situation," right fielder Jayson Werth said. "I think I'll take a nap, wake up refreshed and pretend the whole thing didn't happen."

Oswalt caught a routine fly ball from Astros catcher Jason Castro, earning a loud ovation from the fans.
