The games are back-to-back and look the same for Charles Leblanc and the Miami Marlins. The Quebecer scored one more, but his team lost 4-1 to the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park on Tuesday.

Early in the second inning, Leblanc sent a bid from Zack Wheeler (11-5) to safety, allowing him to reach first base. However, he was unable to produce a run or hit home plate himself in four shots.
Wheeler was excellent, allowing only one earned run with five hits in six innings. The three successors who succeeded him also confused the Marlins hitters.
It was more difficult for Braxton Garrett (2-6), responsible for all points allowed by the Marlins. JT Realmuto was his biggest torturer, hitting a productive double in the first inning and a homer in the fourth.
Jean Segura followed suit moments later, hitting his seventh long ball of the season.
JJ Bleday gave the Marlins their only moment of celebration with a homer in the fourth inning, only his second of the season.
Shane Bieber doesn’t know the Tigers
At Comerica Park, shooter Shane Bieber completely taunted the Detroit Tigers hitters and the Cleveland Guardians won 5-2.
Bieber (7-6) passed eight batters in the glove in seven innings, blinding his rivals. He only allowed four hits.
Amed Rosario hit a productive double for the Guardians before crossing home plate himself when Oscar Gonzalez did the same an inning later. Josh Naylor with a single and Austin Hedges with a sacrificial fly also extended the visitors’ lead.
Tyler Alexander (2-6) deserved a better spell on the Tigers’ side. He added the loss to his tally despite allowing just two runs with seven hits in seven innings.
