(AP Photo/Rebecca Blackwell) MIAMI (AP) — Eric Wagaman and Jesús Sánchez homered as the Miami Marlins snapped a five-game home skid with an 8-3 win over the Phillies on Tuesday night, ending Philadelphia's five-game win streak. Xavier Edwards had three hits and Javier Sanoja tripled and singled for the Marlins. Advertisement Nick Castellanos was benched by Phillies manager Rob Thomson on Tuesday for 'an inappropriate comment' the outfielder made after he was pulled for a defensive replacement in the series opener Monday. The benching ended Castellanos' streak of 236 consecutive starts. Edwards' RBI single capped a three-run sixth that put Miami ahead 5-3. Phillies reliever Tanner Banks inherited two base runners from starter Jesús Luzardo and allowed an RBI groundout by Kyle Stowers and Sanoja's run-scoring triple. Sánchez connected off reliever Joe Ross with a solo blast in the seventh inning, his seventh homer of the season. Freddy Tarnok (1-0) pitched the top of the sixth and earned the win. Advertisement Luzardo (6-3) gave up four runs and six hits in five-plus innings. The former Marlins left-hander struck out four and walked four. Run scoring singles by Johan Rojas and Kyle Schwarber in the fifth gave the Phillies a 3-2 lead. Wagaman put Miami on the board with his two-run blast in the second. Quantrill retired the first nine before Trea Turner homered for the second straight game, connecting for a drive over the wall in left to lead off the fourth. The right-hander gave up three runs and four hits in four-plus innings. Tuesday's start was moved up 30 minutes to reduce the viewing conflict with Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers. Advertisement Key moment After Luzardo walked Wagaman and Norby to start the sixth, Nick Fortes advanced the runners with a groundout. Wagaman and Norby ended up scoring the tying and go-ahead runs. Key stat The Marlins finished with 13 hits. They have 10 or more hits in six of their last 10 games. Up next LHP Ranger Suárez (5-1, 2.32) will start for the Phillies on Wednesday. The Marlins have not announced a starter. ___ AP MLB:

Marlins halt skid with 11-10 win over Rays in extras
June 7 - Heriberto Hernandez had a pinch-hit RBI single in the 10th inning to lift the visiting Miami Marlins to a wild 11-10 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday. Miami bounced back from squandering a 10-6 lead and earned the advantage after Hernandez's base hit to shallow center field off Garrett Cleavinger (0-2) plated inherited runner Otto Lopez. Second baseman Xavier Edwards threw out Kameron Misner at the plate in the bottom of the 10th to help secure the win for Cade Gibson (1-3), who did not allow a hit over two scoreless innings. The Marlins evened the series at one win apiece and spoiled the day for the Rays, who saw Evan Longoria sign a ceremonial one-day contract and retire with the team. Miami's Jesus Sanchez belted a three-run homer and drove in five runs, Liam Hicks ripped a two-run double and Edwards also drove in two runs. Dane Myers added an RBI double for the Marlins, who snapped a five-game losing streak. Tampa Bay matched a season high with five homers, highlighted by Christopher Morel's power surge in which he launched a three-run blast in the second and a solo shot in the sixth. Taylor Walls belted a homer and drove in three runs, Danny Jansen added a two-run shot and Brandon Lowe had a solo homer for the Rays, who saw their four-game winning streak come to a halt. Miami erupted for six runs in the fifth to take a 10-6 lead before Tampa Bay responded with three runs in the sixth and another in the seventh to forge a tie. Morel capped his two-homer performance by launching a fly ball that sailed just inside the left field foul pole in the sixth. Walls added a two-run shot to right-center field in the sixth and Lowe leveled the contest with his blast to center field in the seventh. Morel's three-run homer and Walls' RBI double staked Tampa Bay to an early 4-0 lead. Edwards' double drove in a run and Sanchez's fifth homer of the season knotted the contest in the third. Jansen's blast to left field regained the advantage for the Rays before the Marlins countered with a big inning in the fifth. Edwards had an RBI single to drive starter Taj Bradley from the game, and Sanchez greeted Mason Montgomery with a double that drove in a pair. Hicks added a two-run double and scored on Myers' double to extend Miami's advantage to 10-6. --Field Level Media
