Daily News | Phillies fall to the Marlins, 7-1, as their pitching struggles and their bats remain cold

MIAMI — The Phillies’ 7-1 loss to the Marlins on Friday marked their fourth straight defeat, and it was an ugly one. Both starting pitcher Zach Eflin and first reliever Nick Nelson struggled against a Marlins lineup that shouldn’t have been giving them as much trouble as it did, and the Phillies bats were cold.

The Marlins had only seen Nelson once before Friday’s game, but made quick work of him. The right-hander entered in the fifth inning, and the Marlins promptly scored two runs in the inning that featured a single, two doubles, a triple, a walk, and a sacrifice fly. They added another run in the sixth without a hit: two walks, a hit batsman, and anoter sacrifice fly.
