Brandon Marsh homered for the third consecutive game, drove in two runs and scored twice, fueling the host Philadelphia Phillies to a 9-5 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Sunday.
Rafael Marchan belted a two-run homer and Alec Bohm also had two hits and two RBIs as Philadelphia won the decisive contest of the three-game series.
Jose Alvarado (3-1) struck out two batters over one scoreless inning and Orion Kerkering did the same to bridge the gap to Jonathan Bowlan, who fanned three in two scoreless frames.
Bryce Harper had an RBI double among his two hits, Trea Turner doubled and singled and Bryson Stott added a go-ahead RBI single in the fifth inning for the Phillies, who have won nine of their last 12 games.
Chicago's Randal Grichuk ripped a two-run single among his two hits, and Tristan Peters and rookie Sam Antonacci each two hits and an RBI.
The White Sox left 10 runners on base en route to losing for the fourth time in their last six games.
Andrew Benintendi and Colson Montgomery each worked a walk off Aaron Nola to start the fifth inning and advanced a base on a sacrifice. Tim Mayza relieved Nola and promptly allowed Grichuk's blooper to shallow center field that plated both runners to stake Chicago to a 5-4 lead.
In the bottom half, Bohm plated Harper with a line-drive double down the first base line off Tyler Davis (2-3), and Stott followed with an RBI single. Bohm scored on an infield grounder to shortstop to give Philadelphia a 7-5 lead.
Marsh and Bohm each had an RBI single in the sixth inning to double the advantage for the Phillies.
Chicago seized a 2-1 lead in the top of the second before Philadelphia answered in its half of the inning. Justin Crawford had a one-out single before Marchan deposited a 1-1 fastball from rookie David Sandlin over the wall in center field. Marchan's second homer of the season came on his seventh hit in 2026.
The White Sox forged a 3-3 tie on Peters' double in the third, but Marsh regained the lead for Philadelphia in the bottom of the third. Marsh sent a 1-1 curveball over the wall in left-center field.
Nola allowed all five Chicago runs on six hits and four walks in 4 1/3 innings. He struck out four.
