First pitch swingin’: Phillies 4, Marlins 2

The Phillies got back to their recent winning ways thanks to a three-run home run from Bryson Stott that backed another strong start from Ranger Suárez in a 4-2 win over the Marlins. Stott ripped his home run on the first pitch he saw in his second-at bat as part of a four-run 4th inning that featured back-to-back first pitch RBI base hits. Suárez meanwhile cruised through 7 innings with his only blemish being a solo home run to Connor Norby in the fifth.

Why wait?

Alec Bohm led off the fourth with a single to center, his second of three hits on the night. Nick Castellanos then swung at the first pitch he saw and hit a hard line drive to center that was caught by a diving Dane Myers.
