The Phillies' Cody Asche (center) is congratulated by teammates after following a fourth-inning HR on Tuesday.

Cody Asche has been on such a tear lately that new Phillies manager Pete Mackanin thinks he should try his luck off the field.

Asche hit two home runs to help Aaron Harang get his first victory in over a month as Philadelphia beat the Miami Marlins 6-2 on Tuesday night.

"Today is his day," Mackanin said of Asche.
