Chase Utley drove Rollins in on a double into right field. Three batters later with John Mayberry Jr. at-bat and two out, Pierre scored on fielding error by Marlins third baseman Greg Dobbs.
Philadelphia added to their lead in the next inning with two outs. Pierre laced a triple into right field and Rollins came around to score from first.
