Marlins starting pitcher Josh Johnson had a no-hitter through five innings, but the Philadelphia Phillies came back to defeat Miami 3-1 at Citizens Bank Park on Wednesday. Johnson(8-12) went seven innings and allowed three runs on four hits. Cliff Lee( 5-7) took the win for the Phillies as he gave up one run on four hits in seven innings.
Neither team scored until the sixth inning. The Marlins got one run on several Phillies fielding mistakes. With one out, Donovan Solano reached first on a Jimmy Rollins error and advanced to second on a fielder's choice throwing error by Lee. Two batters later, Carlos Lee knocked Solano in on an RBI-single to right field.
The Phillies picked up one run in the bottom of the frame. Rollins started with a single to right field and went to second on a sacrifice by Juan Pierre. Chase Utley then walked and Ryan Howard struck out. Rollins scored on a single by John Mayberry, Jr. to center field and evened the game.
Philadelphia was able to get a two-out rally during the seventh inning. Pete Orr pinched-hit for Lee, singled to right and stole second base. Rollins smacked a two-run homer to right field on a 2-0 pitch for his 19th home run this season.
