Mat Latos faced nine hitters in the first inning, seven of whom reached and eventually scored. Brad Hand came on in relief, allowing the first two hitters he faced to reach, but then settling in to retire thirteen of the final fourteen he faced. The Braves pinned another disaster inning on a top Marlin pitcher in the ninth, as Steve Cishek retired the first batter he faced and then allowed four straight to reach. Miami managed only two runs, clustered around Donovan Solano’s pinch-hit triple in the fifth. I was going to point out that this game features an Ichiro as a Marlin sighting, but had forgotten that he actually appeared in more games for the Marlins (432) than the Yankees (360).
