Overview

  • Miami overcame an early four-run deficit and withstood a late Rays rally to score 11 runs, matching a season high and snapping a five-game skid.
  • Jesús Sánchez drove in five runs with a three-run homer and a two-run double to power Miami’s comeback offense.
  • Heriberto Hernandez delivered the go-ahead RBI single in the bottom of the 10th inning to put the Marlins ahead for good.
  • Xavier Edwards threw out the mandatory runner at home in the 10th inning to deny Tampa Bay a tying run.
  • Starter Ryan Weathers remained in to pitch three innings after being struck in the head by a warm-up throw and is scheduled for further evaluation.
