Despite throwing the ball very well this season, Cole Hamels continues to grow frustrated with his lack of victories.
Jarrod Saltalamacchia hit a two-run double, Henderson Alvarez threw 6 2-3 sharp innings and the Miami Marlins beat the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2 Wednesday night.
Miami Marlins starter Henderson Alvarez had a decent beginning to his season, but his stellar outing against the Philadelphia Phillies just over a month ago triggered a hot stretch that could wind up landing him an All-Star nod.
Marlon Byrd hit a two-run homer, David Buchanan threw five effective innings and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Miami Marlins 7-4 on Tuesday night.
After a horrendous start to the season in other teams' ballparks, the Miami Marlins are finding ways to win on the road. They'll try to continue that trend Tuesday night against the Philadelphia Phillies at a park that has been especially unwelcoming to the Marlins in recent seasons.
If the Marlins are going to solve their problems on the road, Philadelphia is the place to start. Casey McGehee hit a two-run double, Nathan Eovaldi pitched six-hit ball into the seventh inning and Miami beat the Phillies 4-0 Monday night.
Although their recent offensive surge came to a halt in losing their last two games, the Philadelphia Phillies appear to have a good chance to get back on track against an NL East rival they've dominated at home.
The Miami Marlins continued their dominance at Marlins Park on Thursday afternoon as they beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-3.
Miami starter Henderson Alvarez (2-3, 3.62) is 0-2 with a 4.88 ERA in five road starts this season, but 2-1 with a 2.33 ERA in four at Marlins Park. He recorded both of his shutouts this season at home, most recently May 6 when he tossed a six-hitter in beating the New York Mets 3-0.
Marcell Ozuna hit a grand slam and drove in five runs to help power the Miami Marlins past the Philadelphia Phillies 14-5 on Wednesday.
Lackluster run support has contributed to Kyle Kendrick's winless record this season, but he might not need too much help for this start. The Philadelphia Phillies right-hander will seek to win his 11th consecutive decision over the Miami Marlins on Wednesday.
Anthony DeSclafani isn't expected to perform to the level of Jose Fernandez just because he's taking the phenom's spot in the rotation for the time being. The newest Miami Marlins starter simply is trying to soak in the moment of playing in the big leagues.
Chase Utley extended his hot start with the tie-breaking homer among three hits, sparking the Philadelphia Phillies to a 4-3 victory over the Miami Marlins on Sunday for a three-game sweep.
Even Giancarlo Stanton's monster performance wasn't enough to help the Miami Marlins put an end to their losing streak.
Marlon Byrd drove in two runs and the Philadelphia Phillies knocked around Jose Fernandez in one of his worst major league starts, beating the Miami Marlins 6-3 Friday night to snap a four-game skid.
Darin Ruf is too good of a hitter not to play. The Phillies just need a place for him in the lineup.
Long-time Major League Baseball manager and player Jim Fregosi died at a Miami hospital Friday after suffering multiple strokes last weekend.
Adeiny Hechavarria drove in three runs, including a go-ahead run in the eighth inning, to help the Miami Marlins to a 3-2 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Wednesday night.
Even before the 2013 regular season began, most fans knew the Miami Marlins were going to be a bad team. But the Marlins are threatening record territory as they continue to lose games through the final weeks of the regular season.
Cole Hamels had a season-high 11 strikeouts in seven dominant innings, Domonic Brown hit another homer and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Miami Marlins 6-1 on Wednesday to complete a three-game sweep and even their record for the first time since they were 6-6.
The Philadelphia Phillies have been scoring at a solid pace during their winning streak that has brought them to within a victory of reaching .500 for the first time since April.
John Mayberry Jr. is Mr. Extra Innings.
If Domonic Brown can continue his recent power surge, Jonathan Pettibone will likely to have an easiertime bouncing back from his first loss for the Philadelphia Phillies.
Domonic Brown hit his eighth homer in eight games to back Kyle Kendrick's six-hitter, and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Miami Marlins 7-2 Monday night.
