PHILADELPHIA -- It has been rare for Philadelphias heralded starting staff to hear boos this season. The Phillies fans let Roy Oswalt hear their displeasure Friday night. Oswalt had one of his worst outings of the season in 5 2-3 subpar innings, and John Buck hit a grand slam for Florida as the struggling Marlins beat the Phillies 6-5. "It was pretty much one bad pitch," Oswalt said, referring to Bucks homer. "(It was) a slider that didnt do what I wanted it to do." Oswalt (6-8) matched his career high by allowing 12 hits, as every Marlins position player recorded at least one off the Philadelphia right-hander. He was lifted after giving up six runs -- five earned -- while striking out two and walking one in 5 2-3 innings. Oswalt was loudly booed in the sixth in a way that was reminiscent of the days when the Phillies lost often at old Veterans Stadium. Manager Charlie Manuel was cheered when he emerged from the dugout to lift Oswalt, but the pitcher was given encouraging cheers on his way back to the dugout. "He made some good pitches but the guys jumped on it. I cant explain it," Florida manager Jack McKeon said. "The way weve been hitting we had a hell of a night because we havent been hitting that well." Oswalt missed 37 games this season with lower back inflammation, but didnt blame his back for not having the same zip on his fastball. "It was a little down tonight but I dont worry about that," Oswalt said of his velocity. "I saw 91-92 (mph), theres no big difference. Im good." Said Manuel, "He had trouble getting ahead of hitters. He was crisp but had a hard time getting the ball inside." Ryan Howard homered for the Phillies (83-46), who have lost two straight but still maintained a comfortable six-game lead over the Braves in the NL East with Atlantas 6-0 loss to the New York Mets on Friday. After Greg Dobbs, Gaby Sanchez and Mike Cameron led off the sixth with three straight singles, Buck hit an opposite-field grand slam that landed in the first row in right field for his 16th homer of the season to put Florida ahead 6-1. "It feels good to be able to come through in a situation like that," Buck said. "Against the Phillies, bases loaded, Roy Oswalt, thats the kind of scenario youll write in a fantasy book." Clay Hensley (2-5) allowed three runs on three hits in 5 2-3 innings and Dobbs had four hits -- including two doubles -- to help Florida win for just the fourth time in 21 games and snap a five-game losing streak in Philadelphia. "It wasnt anything (Oswalt) was doing, just kind of the work and preparation Ive been doing," Dobbs said of his success Friday. "Hes historically one of the best pitchers in the game. That staff is full of them, really. If youre going to pick a time to go after a pitch, you dont want to miss. You want to make the most of that. Its a lot fun competing against those guys because theyre the best." Florida (59-72) improved to 4-9 overall against the Phillies and 2-5 at Citizens Bank Park this season. The Marlins were swept in four games during their last trip to Philadelphia, June 14-16, when they scored a total of six runs in the four contests. "We keep it entertaining, no question about that, every night," McKeon said. "Thank God we were able to hold on." The Marlins had scored the go-ahead run in the fourth when Mike Stanton reached on Dobbs double to make it 2-1. Florida took a 1-0 lead in the first when Emilio Bonifacio scored on Logan Morrisons double-play groundout. Bonifacio was on second after singling and stealing second. Valdezs solo homer in the third was the Phillies first hit and tied the game at 1. Philadelphia didnt get its second hit until Polancos two-out single in the sixth. Chase Utley followed with a double down the left-field line to put runners on second and third for Howard. Hensley was lifted for left-handed reliever Mike Dunn and Howard launched the relievers second pitch deep to right to pull Philadelphia to 6-4. "I wouldve liked the opportunity to finish the inning, but its not my call," Hensley said. The three-run homer gave Howard 99 RBIs for the season, leaving him one shy of reaching 100 for the sixth straight season. Howard averaged 136 RBIs in the previous five years. Notes: The Phillies and Marlins postponed their game scheduled for 7:05 Saturday night due to Hurricane Irene and will make it up on Thursday, Sept. 15 in Philadelphia at a time to be determined. The clubs are still scheduled to play what was supposed to be the first game of a day-night doubleheader at 1:05 Saturday. ...

The right-hander won his sixth straight decision, Josh Hamilton drove in two runs and Texas defeated the Kansas City Royals 4-2 on Saturday night. Feldman (6-6) worked into the eighth inning and became the first pitcher in 29 years to win six consecutive decisions after starting the season 0-6. Doyle Alexander did it in 1983 with the New York Yankees and Toronto Blue Jays. "Ive just sort of gone about my business and felt the same way the whole year," Feldman said. "Its just nice to get an opportunity to go in there and help out and keep my focus on that, making good pitches." Feldman went 17-9 in 2009, but knee injuries the past two seasons set him back. This year, he returned to the rotation because of injuries to Rangers starters Neftali Feliz and Colby Lewis. "Its been very timely," manager Ron Washington said. "Hes been our security blanket, really. Things go wrong in the rotation and weve been able to just plug him and he eats up innings. Hes executing his pitches really well." Hamilton, who leads the majors with 90 RBIs, hit an opposite-field single in the third inning to score Ian Kinsler and Elvis Andrus. Kinsler singled with one out and went to third on Andrus double. Mike Olt, called up Thursday from Double-A, added two RBIs for the AL West leaders. With closer Joe Nathan unavailable, Alexi Ogando worked around two singles in the ninth to earn his third save. "Its like the 09 Feldman," Hamilton said. "Hes throwing the ball good, mixing his pitches up well. Hes getting the job done. Hes keeping the ball down. Hes not throwing it over the middle of the plate. Everything has got so much movement on it." Feldman, who was 3-0 with a 1.96 ERA in July, held Kansas City to six hits and two runs over 7 2-3 innings. The Royals, who lost for the 23rd time in 32 games, scored twice in the fifth on groundouts by Chris Getz and Alex Gordon. "We did a pretty good job against him," Kansas City manager Ned Yost said. "He had a tremendous two-seamer, a tremendous splitter and a tremendous curve. He was reallly hard to hit and I think we did a good job of getting some hits off him.dddddddddddd" Olt, who had 28 home runs and 82 RBIs with Double-A Frisco before his promotion, hit a sacrifice fly in the fourth and an RBI single with two outs in the sixth. "A big sac fly, a big hit up the middle with two outs," Washington said. "That was huge. That gave us a little bit more of a cushion." Royals rookie Will Smith (2-4) gave up four runs and eight hits over 5 2-3 innings in losing his third straight start. The Rangers could have scored more runs in the third if not for a gaffe on the bases. Hamilton stopped at second on Adrian Beltres single before Nelson Cruzs grounder caromed off the glove of shortstop Alcides Escobar for an error. The Royals, however, converted that into a double play when Beltre was caught between second and third and tagged out. Cruz attempted to go to second on the play and was out to end the inning. "We could have put more on the board in the third inning, but it just wasnt to be," Washington said. NOTES: The Royals fired first base coach Doug Sisson and replaced him with Rusty Kuntz, who served in that capacity from 2008-10. "We felt a change was needed," Yost said. ... Nathan was unavailable again Saturday after throwing 62 pitches in two innings on Wednesday and Thursday. "Thats a lot of pitches," he said. "Im trying to get rid of some normal tightness and get back to throwing more free and easy. Two nights of breather will loosen me up." ... LF David Murphy remained in the Texas lineup, although the Royals started a left-hander. "Hes hot," Washington said. "Im going to ride him. At some point you have to take advantage of what guys are doing when theyre hot." The left-handed hitting Murphy entered batting.378 against left-handers. ... Feldman has not pitched a complete game in 93 career starts, the third-longest active streak in the majors. ... LHP Derek Holland will make his sixth start Sunday for the Rangers since coming off the disabled list from shoulder fatigue. The Royals will start RHP Luke Hochevar, who is 2-0 with a 3.08 ERA in four career starts against the Rangers. ' ' '
