PHILADELPHIA (AP) -- Casey McGehee hit a two-run double, Nathan Eovaldi pitched six-hit ball into the seventh inning and the Miami Marlins beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-0 Monday night.
Eovaldi (5-3) went 6 1-3 innings and got 12 of his 19 outs on flyballs. The right-hander hadn't won since May 26 and gave up 11 runs in his previous two starts.
Phillies starter Roberto Hernandez (3-6) allowed two runs and three hits, striking out six in six innings.
 
McGehee, Eovaldi lead Marlins over Phillies 4-0
 
Hernandez lined a single to right in the third inning for his first career hit after going 0 for 40.
Coming off a 3-7 homestand, the Marlins kicked off a four-game series with a rare win in Philadelphia. They're just 10-26 at Citizens Bank Park since 2010, including two wins in their last 10 games. The Marlins are tied with San Diego and Tampa Bay for fewest road wins this season with 13.
The Phillies were shut out for the 10th time this season, and seventh time in their last 25 home games. They've lost three in a row after winning five straight on the road at Atlanta and St. Louis.
The Marlins got all the runs they needed in the first inning. Derek Dietrich hit a single and Giancarlo Stanton was hit by a pitch. McGehee followed with a drive to right-center to score both runners. Though he only has one homer out of the cleanup spot, McGehee has 46 RBIs.
McGehee has a 14-game hitting streak on the road. He's hitting .435 (27 for 62) with 10 RBIs in those games.
Pinch-hitter Reed Johnson drove in a run in the ninth on a bloop single to left. Dietrich also had an RBI single in the inning.
Eovaldi pitched out of a jam in the fourth after Cody Asche ripped a double to put runners on second and third with two outs. He retired Domonic Brown on a shallow fly to end the inning.
Eovaldi allowed one walk and has issued only five in his last seven starts, covering 45 innings.
The Marlins turned three double plays, including a nifty 6-4-3 started by Ed Lucas on a hard one-hopper in the hole by Carlos Ruiz in the eighth inning.
