PHILADELPHIA, PA -- Jeremy Hellickson improved to 4-0 with six innings of one-run ball, Freddy Galvis and Maikel Franco had two hits each, and Brock Stassi's RBI triple provided the winning run as the Phillies defeated the Marlins 3-2 on Thursday.
The Marlins had nine hits, led by two apiece from Christian Yelich and J.T. Realmuto -- who each drove in a run -- but Miami left eight runners on base.
"We kind of battled back in San Diego and got a couple, and then come here," Marlins manager Don Mattkngly said on taking two of three at San Diego and losing two at Philly. "You don't feel a lot of energy. I don't know if it's the two days off. They were in the same situation. I didn't feel a lot of energy, even in the seventh there. We may have to do somethings differently. In terms of mixing things up."
After their three-city, eight-game road trip (with one rain out), the Marlins return to Marlins Park on Friday to take on the Pirates at 7:10 p.m. ET. Left-hander Adam Conley (1-1, 3.00) gets the start for Miami. Right-hander James Taillon (1-0, 2.13) goes for Pittsburgh. Conley has made one career start against the Pirates, and in a no-decision he struck out nine in six innings.
