Former Yankees prospect Agustin Ramirez slugged two homers, leading the host Miami Marlins to a 2-0 win over New York on Saturday afternoon.

Ramirez, a Rookie of the Year candidate, has 17 homers this year.

The Marlins are 29-14 since June 13 and have already clinched the series against the Yankees. That makes Miami 10-1-1 in its past 12 series.

Eury Perez (4-3) pitched six shutout innings, allowing just two hits and three walks. Perez, who struck out five, continues his fine work from July, when he went 3-1 with a 1.29 ERA.

Calvin Faucher pitched a scoreless ninth for his 11th save of the season. The Marlins also got one scoreless inning each from Ronny Henriquez and Tyler Phillips.

It was Miami’s third shutout win in its past four games, and the Marlins are now just one game under .500 at 54-55.

Yankees rookie Cam Schlittler (1-2) took the loss, allowing four hits, two walks and two runs in five innings. He allowed both of the homers hit by Ramirez.

After a wild 13-12 win by the Marlins on Friday, Saturday’s game was rather calm.

However, there were some big plays.

In fact, New York nearly scored in the first inning as Giancarlo Stanton drilled a two-out, 111-mph single. But left fielder Kyle Stowers charged in and threw a no-hop strike to home, where Liam Hicks tagged out Trent Grisham, who was trying to score from second.

Miami took a 1-0 lead in the second as Ramirez belted a 421-foot homer to left on a hit that had a 112-mph exit velocity. Ramirez hit a 3-1 fastball clocked at 97 mph.

In the second inning, New York’s Jazz Chisholm Jr. was caught too far off of first base on a popup by Paul Goldschmidt. Second baseman Xavier Edwards threw out Chisholm.

The Marlins extended their lead to 2-0 in the fourth inning as Ramirez hit a 1-2 sweeper that was up and wide of the strike zone for a 418-foot homer to center. The exit velocity was 108 mph.
