Phillies put streak on line against Marlins

Riding a four-game winning streak, the Philadelphia Phillies will hand the ball to a starter who still is looking for his first victory of the season to begin an inter-division series.

The Miami Marlins (10-8) come to town on Tuesday, fresh off a six-game West Coast swing that saw them go 3-3, including wins over the San Diego Padres and Saturday and Sunday to give them some positive vibes on a Monday off that both teams enjoyed.

"Any time you lose the first game and come back to win the series, it feels good," Sunday's starting pitcher Tom Koehler said to the Sun-Sentinel after a 7-3 victory.
