Phillies 4, Marlins 0: Cole Hamels pitched his second straight shutout - a seven-hitter - and extended his scoreless streak to 22 innings as visiting Philadelphia snapped a five-game losing streak to Miami.

Hamels (13-6), who pitched a five-hitter against Atlanta on Tuesday, defeated the Marlins for the first time in four starts this season. He struck out five and walked one en route to his sixth career shutout and 12th complete game.

Juan Pierre had two hits, including an RBI triple, and Chase Utley had a run-scoring double for the Phillies, who won for the third time in four games.

Jose Reyes and Donovan Solano had two hits apiece for the Marlins, who have lost six of their last nine contests.

Nathan Eovaldi (3-8) fell to 2-2 in four starts since arriving from Los Angeles in the Hanley Ramirez trade. He allowed three runs (two earned) and eight hits in five innings.

Hamels struck out Giancarlo Stanton with the bases loaded to end the first inning and allowed only five hits the rest of the way,

With one out in the third, Jimmy Rollins and Pierre singled before Utley stroked a double down the left-field line to score Rollins. With two outs, Pierre scored on third baseman Greg Dobbs' fielding error on a routine grounder by John Mayberry Jr. to make it 2-0.

Pierre laced a two-out triple down the right-field line to score Rollins in the fourth and Erik Kratz delivered a sacrifice fly with the bases loaded in the seventh to put the Phillies ahead 4-0.
