MIAMI, Sept. 22 (UPI) -- Anibal Sanchez pitched eight shutout innings and Dan Uggla and Cody Ross hit solo home runs Tuesday to give the Florida Marlins a 3-0 win over Philadelphia.

The win came in the second game of a doubleheader after Philadelphia won the first game 9-3.

Sanchez (3-7) allowed just two hits -- both to Chase Utley -- walked two and struck out seven for his first win in six starts. Leo Nunez got his 24th save with a perfect ninth.

Hanley Ramirez added two hits, including an RBI double.

Phillies starter Jamie Moyer (12-10) allowed three runs on nine hits with one walk and five strikeouts in seven innings.

In the first game, Philadelphia pulled away late with a five-run eighth inning behind Joe Blanton's seven shutout innings.
