PHILADELPHIA, June 3 (UPI) -- Carlos Zambrano fired 7 2/3 innings of one-run ball and socked a long homer Sunday, elevating the Miami Marlins to a 5-1 victory over Philadelphia.
Zambrano (4-3) won for the third time in four starts, scattering four hits while walking two and striking out seven.

Heath Bell racked up his 12th save as the Marlins won the rubber match of a three-game series at Citizens Bank Park.
Hanley Ramirez added a bases-empty homer and Jose Reyes contributed a two-run double for Miami, which posted its seventh win in nine games.
Blanton (4-6) was touched for five runs on nine hits in a six-inning stint.
