Baseball: Philadelphia 3 Miami 1

Kyle Kendrick dominated the Marlins for seven innings Monday, holding them to two hits, and the Philadelphia Phillies downed Miami 3-1. Kendrick (9-10) won for the fifth time in six starts, taking a no-hitter into the sixth inning. The right-hander yielded one run, walked three and struck out eight. Justin De Fratus and Jake Diekman combined for a scoreless eighth and Anthony Bastardo notched his first save of the year for Philadelphia, which kept its faint playoff hopes alive by taking the opener of a three-game series. The Phillies came into the contest six games out of a National League wild card spot. Domonic Brown socked a two-run homer and Michael Martinez added a sacrifice fly in the third inning to provide the Philadelphia offense. The loss was hung on Miami\'s Wade LeBlanc (2-4), who allowed three runs on four hits in five frames. Donovan Solano got the Marlins\' only RBI.
