Team captain Steven Fuglister and Kenneth Mitchell Stern scored four goals apiece as the Eagles repeated over the Malaysians to end the campaign on a high note after failing to repeat the title they won in the 2017 Kuala Lumpur Games.
Jan Aro Regencia, Jann Gefrey So Tiong and Lenard Lancero added two goals each for the Philippines, which defeated Malaysia 15-1 in the tournament opener the previous Sunday.
The Eagles were able to get a victory after their title reign came to an end Saturday with a 4-3 loss to Singapore in the semifinals.
Thailand blanked Singapore 8-0 in the final later in the day to secure the gold medal.
