Phils rally past Marlins In Miami, Shane Victorino hit a grand slam to highlight a seven-run rally in the ninth inning as the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Florida Marlins 7-3 on Friday. The Marlins took a three-hitter into the ninth and were two outs from a 3-0 victory when pinch hitter Matt Stairs singled home the Phillies' first run. Closer Matt Lindstrom walked in a run before Victorino hit his second homer on a 2-1 pitch. Five pitches later, Chase Utley hit his fifth homer. Clay Condrey (3-0) pitched two hitless innings, and Ryan Madson struck out the side in the ninth. The rally cost Florida's Josh Johnson a victory after he allowed three hits in seven innings.
