Phillies Edge Marlins

     The Miami Marlins finished their short four-game road trip with a 5-3 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies in 14 innings on Thursday night at Citizens Bank Park. The Fish, who played at least 13 innings for the fourth time in 19 games, return home for a weekend series against the Oakland A's.
     In the third inning, Jarrod Saltalamacchia smashed a solo home run off Cole Hamels with none out on a 3-1 count to left field for his seventh homer this year. It was the first dinger that he hit batting right handed in a Marlins uniform.
     Giancarlo Stanton pounded his 21st homer of the season during the fourth inning as he took a 3-2 pitch over the left field wall to give Miami(40-39) a 2-0 lead.
     Philadelphia(35-43) got a rally going in the bottom of the fourth against Tom Koehler and cut the deficit to 2-1. Chase Utley began with a single to right then Ryan Howard got an infield hit. Two batters later, Cody Asche singled to right field and loaded the bases. Carlos Ruiz knocked in Utley with a sacrifice fly into left field.
     The Phillies tied the ballgame 2-2 during the fifth inning. Ben Revere singled to center and then stole second. He advanced to third on a Jimmy Rollins ground out and scored on a base hit to center by Utley.
     The Marlins picked up another solo home run in the seventh inning to regain the lead 3-2. Marcell Ozuna led off and hit a 1-1 pitch to left-center field for his 13rd tally in 2014.
     The Phils got a break on a two-out error in the bottom of the frame to tie it again. They had Domonic Brown standing on third base for the tying run. Rollins grounded a ball to the right side, first baseman Jeff Baker could not release the ball to pitcher Bryan Morris headed to first and Brown crossed the plate.
    In the 14th inning, Philadelphia finished the game against Marlins reliever Chris Hatcher. Rollins got an infield hit and Utley followed with a walk-off two-run homer to right field on a 0-2 count for his sixth home run this season.
     Hamels pitched seven innings for the Phillies, struck out seven and allowed three runs on six hits. Koehler gave up two runs on seven hits and struck out six in six innings.
