MIAMI, May 10 (Reuters) - Two of the National League's best pitchers matched each other pitch-for-pitch until the Florida Marlins manufactured a run in the eighth inning for a 2-1 win over their divisional rival Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday.
Marlins starter Josh Johnson gave up a solo home run to Ryan Howard to lead off the second inning while Phillies starter Roy Halladay was stung in the third inning when he walked Johnson, who then scored on a sacrifice fly by Emilio Bonifacio.
Johnson allowed just one more hit before being replaced after the seventh inning with the score tied.
Halladay, however, remained and gave up an unearned run in the eighth inning when Marlins second baseman Omar Infante reached base on a throwing error by shortstop Jimmy Rollins to lead off the inning.
Infante advanced to second on a wild pitch by Halladay and later scored on a RBI single by Chris Coghlan.
Mike Dunn pitched the eighth for the Marlins to pick up the win and Leo Nunez earned the save with a scoreless ninth inning.
Johnson allowed six hits while striking out seven and walking three.
Halladay struck out nine, walked two and allowed five hits but took the loss after the wayward eighth inning.
