Phillies edge Marlins, improve to 4-0 under Don Mattingly

Mandatory Credit: Rhona Wise-Imagn Images Zack Wheeler logged six effective innings as the Philadelphia Phillies hung on for a 6-5 road victory against the Miami Marlins on Friday.
Bryson Stott hit a three-run homer for Philadelphia, which improved to 4-0 under interim manager Don Mattingly. Edmundo Sosa and Alec Bohm each added two hits and an RBI for the Phillies.
Wheeler (1-0), in his second start since missing more than eight months with a blood clot in his shoulder, allowed just a run and three hits. He walked two and struck out eight to earn his first win of the season.
Miami starter Eury Perez (2-3) was charged with two runs and four hits in five innings, walking two and striking out six. Otto Lopez had three hits and two RBIs to pace the Marlins’ offensive attack.
The Marlins trailed 6-4 in the ninth when Javier Sanoja drew a leadoff walk against Brad Keller. The right-hander rebounded to strike out the next two hitters – both on borderline calls – before Lopez drilled an RBI single to make it a one-run game. Kyle Stowers and Miami manager Clayton McCullough were ejected after Stowers was called out on strikes for the second out.
However, Keller induced Xavier Edwards into a game-ending flyout to record his first save of the season.
Miami jumped on Wheeler in the first inning, as back-to-back doubles by Lopez and Edwards staked the hosts to a 1-0 lead.
Philadelphia’s offense was quiet through the first three innings. However, the visitors were able to dent the scoreboard in the fourth, as Bohm delivered a two-out RBI single and Justin Crawford followed with a run-scoring double.
Wheeler ensured that Philadelphia maintained the lead, as he struck out a pair in the fourth and two more in the fifth. The right-hander retired the side 1-2-3 in the sixth to end his night after 94 pitches.
That set the stage for the Phillies’ four-run sixth. Bryce Harper’s one-out double began the rally. He came around to score on Sosa’s two-out single before Stott followed with a three-run homer to right-center off Cade Gibson, making it 6-1.
The Marlins clawed back with three runs in the eighth against the Phillies’ bullpen.
Miami’s first three hitters reached against Jonathan Bowlan, including a run-scoring infield hit by Lopez that made it 6-2. Two batters later, Liam Hicks’ sacrifice fly tacked on another run.
Philadelphia then turned to Jose Alvarado, who yielded an RBI single to Agustin Ramirez that brought the Marlins within 6-4.

Dallas hunting for first win at Red Bulls in 20 years
Apr 22, 2026; Frisco, Texas, USA; FC Dallas forward Petar Musa (9) brings the ball to the Minnesota United FC net during the second half at Toyota Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Jerome Miron-Imagn Images FC Dallas are winless in their past 11 visits to the New York Red Bulls across all competitions. The skid dates back nearly two decades.
The Red Bulls rarely conceded goals in those matchups and hope to clamp down defensively Saturday night in Harrison, N.J., especially after their most recent MLS home game.
The Red Bulls are 9-0-2 at home against Dallas since May 24, 2006. The first 10 meetings were MLS regular-season games, and last year the Red Bulls earned a penalty kick win in U.S. Open Competition on May 21.
Six of those games were shutouts and New York would certainly welcome a blanking after blowing a pair of two-goal leads and settling for a 4-4 tie against visiting D.C. United two weeks ago. New York (3-4-3, 12 points) followed up its disappointing defensive showing with last Saturday’s 2-0 loss at Cincinnati, when it conceded two goals in the final 10 minutes of the first half and dropped to 1-4-3 after winning their first two matches.
New York also is hoping to improve defensively after allowing three goals off corner kicks during a 3-1 loss to New York City FC in Wednesday’s 3-1 loss in a U.S. Open Cup contest.
“It’s something that we have to continue to work on,” New York coach Michael Bradley said about the defense. “Obviously, the makeup of our team from a physical profile standpoint means that it’s an area where on some nights we’re going to be really challenged.”
Besides trying to get its first road win over the Red Bulls in 20 years, Dallas (3-3-4, 13 points) is attempting to halt a four-match winless skid. Since scoring four goals apiece in consecutive wins over Houston and D.C. United, Dallas has scored four times and gone 0-2-2.
Last Saturday, Dallas took a 2-1 loss at Seattle, marking the fifth time it was held to one goal or fewer. Nolan Norris scored but his goal wasn’t enough after Dallas trailed by two through the opening 30 minutes.
“Obviously disappointed about the result, but I thought we played pretty well, and I think we’re going to regret seeing the couple moments that led to their goals,” Dallas coach Eric Quill said. “Those moments are fixable.”
Dallas forward Petar Musa is tied for the league lead with nine goals, while teenager Julian Hall paces New York with six goals.

Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski no-hits Nats thru 5 1/3, leaves with cramp
May 1, 2026; Washington, District of Columbia, USA; Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski (32) pitches against the Washington Nationals during the first inning at Nationals Park. Mandatory Credit: Geoff Burke-Imagn Images Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski took a no-hitter into the sixth inning against the Washington Nationals but left the game with a right hamstring cramp.
After throwing a 98.9 mph swinging strike one to James Wood with one out, Misiorowski looked into the dugout. Manager Pat Murphy and trainer Brad Epstein came out, and Misiorowski left the game.
The right-hander was in the midst of a dominant effort, having struck out eight and walked two. He retired the last 12 batters he faced, the final four by strikeout.
Aaron Ashby came on with Milwaukee leading 4-0, struck out Wood and got Luis Garcia Jr. to ground out, extending a combined no-hitter to six innings.
After Ashby returned for the seventh, Washington’s CJ Abrams drew a one-out walk and Daylen Lile broke up the no-hitter with a double to left. Brady House drove in Abrams with a groundout to put the Nationals on the board.
Misiorowski, 24, leads the majors with 59 strikeouts. He has a 2.84 ERA through seven starts this year.
