They had previously rallied from four runs down on May 9 against the Nationals, and have come back 21 times this year.<\/p>\n<p>Lopez got the Marlins on the board in the fifth, grounding out but driving in Esteury Ruiz to make it 6-1. Hern\u00e1ndez then sent a high changeup from Jes\u00fas Luzardo 416 feet to left-center to get the Fightin&#8217; Fish within three.<\/p>\n<p>Lopez drove in another with a single in the seventh and Edwards drove in two more with a single of his own to tie the game at 6-all.<\/p>\n<p>Kyle Stowers drew a walk to start the eighth and Conine was sent in to pinch-hit for Brian Navvareto. He connected on a middle-middle changeup and <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Marlins\/status\/2082534307399147779?s=20\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">launched a 424-foot blast to center<\/a>. It was a homer in 29 of 30 MLB ballparks, per Statcast.<\/p>\n<p>Conine also had a go-ahead pinch-hit homer on June 29 against the Rockies.<\/p>\n<p>Marlins starter Ryan Gusto worked five innings and allowed six runs on nine hits.

Luzardo went 6 1\/3 innings, allowing six runs on six hits and ending his six-game streak of one or fewer runs allowed.<\/p>\n<p>Trea Turner homered and Bryce Harper tripled for the Phillies.<\/p>\n<p>The Phillies have Thursday off before beginning a three-game series at Baltimore on Friday.
