Conine expanded the lead with a two-run drive in the third. He drove a sinker from Singer over the wall in right field for his second homer this season.<\/p>\n
Miami native Sal Stewart hit a two-run homer in the fifth to narrow the deficit to 6-4 before Norby connected off Connor Phillips in the seventh. Norby\u2019s homer ended a string of 10 2\/3 scoreless innings by Cincinnati relievers in the series.<\/p>\n
Singer gave up six runs, five earned, and 10 hits in 2 2\/3 innings.<\/p>\n

The lead was short-lived, as the Marlins tied it in the bottom half on Agust\u00edn Ram\u00edrez’s run-scoring double and Liam Hicks\u2019 RBI single.<\/p>\n
