Phillies Blitz Marlins

     The Philadelphia Phillies pounded the Miami Marlins 8-2 on Tuesday night at Citizens Bank Park. The Marlins will finish their six-game road swing tomorrow. 
     Philadelphia(40-33) took a 3-0 lead in the bottom of the first. Alec Bohm knocked in Brandon Marsh with a base hit into right field. Bryson Stott followed with a triple off the center-field wall for Bryce Harper and Bohm to cross the plate. 
     The Phillies made it 7-0 in the second inning with four more runs. Marsh connected with a two-run homer to left-center field on a 3-1 count for his ninth home run of the year. Edmundo Sosa scored in front of him on the play. Three batters later, Bohm smashed a two-run home run to left-center field on a 2-0 pitch with Kyle Schwarber aboard. It resulted in the ninth homer for Bohm in the 2026 campaign.  
     The Phils expanded it to 8-1 during the bottom of the fourth. Schwarber lined a solo home run barely over the right-field fence on a 1-1 pitch for his 25th homer of the season.
     Miami(36-38) got on the scoreboard in the top of the seventh with two runs and closed it to 8-2. Esteury Ruiz powered a two-run homer to left field on a 1-1 count with Leo Jimenez on base for his fourth home run in 2026.
