Since stringing together a five-game win streak last week, the Phillies had looked dismal, dropping three consecutive games as all momentum the team had built seemingly disappeared.
Tuesday night, the Phillies got back on the right track, as they scored early and often in a 7-4 win over the Marlins.
Tuesday night, the Phillies got back on the right track, as they scored early and often in a 7-4 win over the Marlins.
The Phillies would waste little time getting on the board, as Jimmy Rollins scored on a throwing error by Marlins catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia in the first. Marlon Byrd would then crack a two-run home run to center field to give the Phillies a 3-0 lead after just one inning of play.
The Marlins would take one back in the top of the second, but the Phillies would respond immediately in the bottom of the frame, as Ben Revere scored on a wild pitch.
Cody Asche would continue to produce since his return from the disabled list, as the third baseman doubled home two runs in the sixth before coming around to score on a wild pitch, extending the Phillies' lead to 7-2.
The Marlins would get two back in the eighth against B.J. Rosenberg, but would get no closer, as the Phillies topped Miami, 7-4.
