The Phillies magic number to clinch their fifth consecutive NL East title is now down to three, thanks to a 3-1 win against the Marlins in game one of today's doubleheader.Kyle Kendrick made his first start in 21 games and pitched five solid innings, only allowing two hits, the second being a solo homer by Logan Morrison (20).
Morrison's home-run was the only run the Marlins scored in the game.
Chase Utley, who missed the last seven games due to a concussion, pinched hit in the seventh. With runners on first and second, Utley hit a single to load the bases.
Placido Polanco was walked in the next at-bat to score the Phillies third and final run of the game.
