Starlin Castro Homers In 10th, Lifts Miami Over Phillies 3-1

PHILADELPHIA (CBSMiami/AP) — After a rough start to the season, the Miami Marlins are starting to put some solid games together.

Starlin Castro hit a two-run homer with two outs in the 10th inning to lift the Marlins to a 3-1 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday night.

Marlins starter Caleb Smith gave up one run and three hits, striking out eight in six innings and five relievers pitched four scoreless innings.

Phillies left fielder Nick Williams made a perfect one-hop throw to the plate to prevent Miguel Rojas from scoring from second on Isaac Galloway’s single to end the top of the ninth.
