Marlins Fall To Phillies

     The Miami Marlins lost the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2 on Sunday at Citizens Bank Park. The game was suspended in the 10th inning tied 2-2 on Saturday night and was restarted prior to their scheduled Sunday contest. 
     Philadelphia(46-45) got a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first. Andrew McCutchen hit a sacrifice fly to center field and Jean Segura scored. They made it 2-0 when Rhys Hoskins doubled into center and Bryce Harper crossed the plate. 
     Miami(40-52) compiled two runs in the top of the ninth to even it up 2-2. Jesus Aguilar powered a two-run homer to left field on a 0-1 pitch with Starling Marte aboard. It was the second straight game that Aguilar homered and his 17th home run of the season. 
     In the 10th inning, the Phillies finished the contest. After Jean Segura bunted over Travis Jankowski to third, J.T. Realmuto blasted to two-run homer to right-center field on a 0-2 pitch for his ninth home run of the campaign.
