Meyer and 2 relievers combine on 1-hitter in Marlins' 4-0 victory over Phillies

MIAMI (AP) — Max Meyer and two Miami relievers combined on a one-hitter, Xavier Edwards homered and the Marlins beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-0 on Saturday.

Meyer (2-0) struck out seven in a career-high seven innings. He gave up a single to Garrett Stubbs in the third and walked Alec Bohm in the fifth for the only baserunners he allowed. His outing ended after 83 pitches.

Anthony Bender and Andrew Nardi each pitched a perfect inning to help snap the Phillies' four-game winning streak under interim manager Don Mattingly.

Edwards also singled for the Marlins and Otto López and Connor Norby each had two hits and drove in a run.

Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber has struck out in each of his nine plate appearances in the first two games of the series. For Schwarber, who fanned four times Saturday, the strikeout skid at loanDepot Park is at 11 games, including his last two at-bats against Venezuela in the final of the World Baseball Classic on March 17.

Philadelphia catcher J.T. Realmuto went 0 for 3 in his return from the injured list. He was sidelined since April 22 because of back spasms.

Consecutive walks to Agustín Ramírez and Norby by Phillies starter Andrew Painter (1-3) with the bases loaded in the third put Miami ahead 2-0.

Edwards made it 3-0 with his solo blast in the fifth, sending a fastball from Painter over the wall in right for his second homer of the season.

Painter allowed three runs and seven hits in five innings. He walked three and struck out seven.

Tanner Banks relieved Painter in the sixth and allowed López’s RBI infield single. Esteury Ruiz hit a leadoff double and Jakob Marsee drew a one-out walk. Both advanced on a groundout before López hit a dribbler over the mound.

Phillies outfielder Justin Crawford was in the original lineup, but was a late scratch because of migraines.

LHP Jesús Luzardo (2-3, 5.50) will start for the Phillies on Sunday against Marlins RHP Chris Paddack (0-4, 6.11).

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Golden Tempo won the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, making Cherie DeVaux the first woman to train the winner of the opening leg of the Triple Crown.

Ridden by Jose Ortiz, Golden Tempo — who was at the back of the back early — charged down the stretch to make history for DeVaux in the 1 1/8-mile race, winning at odds of 23-1. Renegade was second, with brother Irad Ortiz Jr. aboard, and long shot Ocelli was third.

“I don’t even have any words right now,” DeVaux said. “I just cant. Just so, so so happy for Golden Tempo. Jose did a wonderful job, a masterful job of getting him there. He was so far out of it.”

DeVaux is just the second female trainer to win any Triple Crown race after Jena Antonucci with Arcangelo in the 2023 Belmont Stakes. She won the Derby in her first opportunity, eight years since starting her own stable.

“I’m glad I can be a representative of all women everywhere that we can do anything we set our minds do,” DeVaux said.

During the week, DeVaux shifted from downplaying what it would mean to be the first woman to train a Derby winner to understanding she’s a role model to girls who might want to follow in her footsteps someday. She’s just the 18th woman to saddle a horse in the Kentucky Derby.

Jose Ortiz showed off the riding prowess that has made him so successful at Churchill Downs in recent days to win the Derby for the first time in his 11th try. It came a little under 24 hours since he also won the Kentucky Oaks, the top race for 3-year-old fillies.

The Kentucky Derby went on with just 18 horses after Great White was a late scratch for flipping and throwing his jockey. Track veterinarians made the call to scratch the long shot who got into the field Wednesday when Silent Tactic was ruled out because of a foot injury.
