PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Every bad pitch Dan Haren makes seems to end up over the fence.
Ryan Howard hit a go-ahead two-run homer, Freddy Galvis also connected to back Jerome Williams, and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Miami Marlins 7-3 Tuesday night.
Haren (1-1) gave up four runs and four hits in six innings. All seven runs he's allowed in three starts have been on five homers.
"I made a couple mistakes and the few I made I didn't get away with, that's for sure," Haren said.
 
Howard, Phillies power up, rally past Marlins
 
Giancarlo Stanton hit a 453-foot homer for slumping Marlins, who lost their fifth straight game and fell to 3-11. Manager Mike Redmond didn't get an endorsement from owner Jeffrey Loria after meeting with him and general manager Dan Jennings before the game.
"I've got one thing to say: I'm not interested in palace intrigue," Loria told reporters. "We've got games to win - period. (Speculation) doesn't have anything to do with anything."
Redmond was stoic after the game.
"It's been tough. Anytime you lose a lead late, it can take the wind out of your sails," he said.
Williams (1-1) allowed three runs - two earned - and eight hits, striking out six in six innings.
Coming off a 1-6 road trip, the Phillies showed some rare pop at the plate. They've hit just eight home runs in 14 games.
Howard gave the Phillies a 4-3 lead in the sixth with a drive to straightaway center. Cody Asche hit a bloop single with two outs before Howard went deep for the first time this season.
"He pitched pretty good, but gave up two big homers," Redmond said of Haren.
Ben Revere hit a two-run triple off Mike Dunn in the seventh and scored on Chase Utley's sacrifice fly. Galvis lined one out to right in the second inning for a 2-0 lead.
Stanton hit a long homer into Miami's bullpen in the fourth.
Adeiny Hechavarria's RBI single tied it at 2 in the fifth. After Haren bunted into a double play, J.T Realmuto scored the go-ahead run when Dee Gordon reached on Howard's fielding error at first base.
"We have to grind it out," Dunn said. "Pressure? We have to go out and win. Plain and simple."
