PHILADELPHIA (Interstat) — Jesús Luzardo pitched seven strong innings and Alec Bohm homered and drove in three runs as the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Miami Marlins 8-2 on Tuesday night at Citizens Bank Park. The Phillies jumped on Marlins starter Tyler Phillips early, scoring three runs in the first inning and four more in the second to build a commanding lead they never relinquished. Philadelphia improved to 40-33, while Miami fell to 36-38. Luzardo allowed five hits and two earned runs while striking out nine without issuing a walk. The left-hander improved to 6-4 on the season. Phillips, making his second start of the year for Miami, took the loss after surrendering seven runs on four hits and three walks over two innings. He dropped to 1-2. The game’s decisive moments came in the opening frames. After Miami stranded a leadoff walk in the top of the first, the Phillies struck quickly in the bottom half. Brandon Marsh walked and stole second base — his seventh steal of the season — before Kyle Schwarber struck out. Bryce Harper then walked, bringing up Bohm with two outs. Bohm singled to right field, scoring Marsh and sending Harper to third. Bryson Stott followed with a triple to right, scoring Harper and Bohm to give the Phillies a 3-0 lead. Philadelphia extended its advantage in the second. Edmundo Sosa led off with a single, and Marsh crushed a 2-1 pitch to center field for a two-run homer, his ninth of the year. After Schwarber walked, Harper grounded out to move Schwarber to second. Bohm then launched his ninth home run of the season to center field, scoring Schwarber and making it 7-0. The Phillies added another run in the fourth when Schwarber hit a solo homer to right field, his 25th of the season, pushing the lead to 8-0. Miami’s offense was stifled by Luzardo through six scoreless innings. The Marlins managed only two hits against him in that stretch — a single by Javier Sanoja in the fifth and a double by Otto Lopez in the sixth. Luzardo retired 14 of the first 16 batters he faced and did not allow a runner past second base until the fifth inning. The Marlins finally broke through in the seventh against Luzardo. Leo Jiménez led off with a double, and Esteury Ruiz followed by hitting a 1-0 pitch over the left-field wall for a two-run homer, his fourth of the season. That cut the deficit to 8-2. Luzardo then retired the next three batters — Jakob Marsee grounded out, Connor Norby struck out swinging and Xavier Edwards struck out looking — to end the inning and his outing. Tanner Banks and Max Lazar each pitched a scoreless inning of relief for Philadelphia. Banks allowed one hit and struck out one in the eighth, while Lazar gave up one hit and struck out two in the ninth. Miami had seven hits in the game, led by Ruiz’s homer and a single, and Lopez’s double. Jiménez also doubled for the Marlins. Despite the loss, Miami had won its previous game against Pittsburgh on Sunday and took two of three from the Pirates over the weekend. Philadelphia’s offense was bolstered by Bohm, who finished 2-for-4 with a homer and three RBIs. Marsh went 1-for-3 with a homer and two RBIs, and Sosa added a single. Harper and J.T. Realmuto each went 0-for-3, while Justin Crawford went 0-for-3 and Gabriel Rincones Jr. went 0-for-3 with a strikeout. Stott had a triple and two RBIs. Defensively, the Phillies turned a double play in the fifth inning, and the Marlins stranded six runners on base. The game was played in front of 38,238 fans and lasted 2 hours, 22 minutes. The win was the second straight for Philadelphia over Miami, following a 7-0 victory on Monday. The Phillies have now won four of the five meetings between the teams this season, including a three-game sweep at Miami in early May. The two clubs conclude their series Wednesday afternoon. For Miami, the loss snapped a two-game winning streak. The Marlins had taken two of three from Pittsburgh over the weekend and had won four of their previous six games. They will travel to San Francisco for a three-game series beginning Friday. Philadelphia returns home Thursday to open a three-game set against the New York Mets.

PHILADELPHIA (Interstat) — The Miami Marlins look to snap a three-game losing streak to the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night at Citizens Bank Park, where first pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. under cloudy skies and a temperature of 76 degrees. Miami (36-36) will start right-hander Tyler Phillips (1-1), while ace left-hander Jesús Luzardo (5-4) is also listed as a probable pitcher for the Marlins, potentially in a piggyback role or on an extra day of rest. The Phillies (38-33) have not announced a starting pitcher for the contest. The Marlins enter the game on a high note, having won four of their last five after taking two of three at Pittsburgh. Rookie right-hander Max Meyer has been the club’s most consistent arm of late, winning four of his last five decisions. In his most recent outing Sunday, Meyer tossed six innings of one-run ball, striking out nine in a 4-2 victory over the Pirates. Over his past four starts, the 26-year-old has allowed just four earned runs in 24 1/3 innings — a 1.48 ERA — with 29 strikeouts. Philadelphia, meanwhile, was blanked 4-0 at Milwaukee on Sunday, managing just three hits. Right-hander Chase Shugart, another reliever the Phillies are watching closely, worked 1 1/3 scoreless innings in that loss. However, Shugart has been inconsistent lately, allowing three earned runs in a brief appearance against Toronto on June 10 and holding a 5.40 ERA over his last six outings. The two teams met Monday in the series opener, with Philadelphia blanking Miami 5-0. The Phillies have won four of the past five head-to-head meetings, including a May series in Miami where they took three of four. Tuesday’s game is the second of a three-game set. An Interstat projection favors Philadelphia, 7-6. The Phillies are listed as -1.5 favorites on the run line, with the over/under set at eight runs.
