Sandy Alcantara delivered a strong pitching performance and Kyle Stowers hit a home run as the Miami Marlins defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 1-0 on Tuesday night. The win marks the Marlins’ second consecutive victory after ending a franchise-record losing streak.
Alcantara pitched seven innings, allowing only four hits. Stowers provided all of the offensive output for Miami with his home run. Xavier Edwards contributed with a single and two walks, while Liam Hicks recorded two hits for the Marlins.
The Phillies were without slugger Kyle Schwarber, who leads the National League with 33 home runs, due to a gastrointestinal illness. The absence of their star hitter likely impacted Philadelphia’s offensive capabilities during the game.
The Marlins' victory comes after a difficult stretch for the team, as they had previously endured a franchise-record 12-game losing streak. Monday’s win snapped that streak, and Tuesday night’s performance builds on that momentum.
