Heriberto Hernandez had a pinch-hit RBI single in the 10th inning to lift the visiting Miami Marlins to a wild 11-10 victory against the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Miami bounced back from squandering a 10-6 lead and earned the advantage after Hernandez\u2019s base hit to shallow center field off Garrett Cleavinger (0-2) scored inherited runner Otto Lopez.<\/p>\n

Second baseman Xavier Edwards threw out Kameron Misner at the plate in the bottom of the 10th to help secure the win for Cade Gibson (1-3), who did not allow a hit through two scoreless innings.<\/p>\n
The Marlins evened the series at one win apiece and spoiled the day for the Rays, who saw Evan Longoria sign a ceremonial one-day contract and retire with the team.<\/p>\n
Miami\u2019s Jesus Sanchez belted a three-run homer and drove in five runs, Liam Hicks ripped a two-run double and Edwards also drove in two runs. Dane Myers added an RBI double for the Marlins, who snapped a five-game losing streak.<\/p>\n
Tampa Bay matched a season high with five homers, highlighted by Christopher Morel\u2019s power surge in which he launched a three-run blast in the second and a solo shot in the sixth.<\/p>\n

Taylor Walls belted a homer and drove in three runs, Danny Jansen added a two-run shot and Brandon Lowe had a solo homer for the Rays, who saw their four-game winning streak come to a halt.<\/p>\n
Miami erupted for six runs in the fifth to take a 10-6 lead before Tampa Bay responded with three runs in the sixth and another in the seventh to forge a tie. Morel capped his two-homer performance by launching a fly ball that sailed just inside the left field foul pole in the sixth.<\/p>\n
Walls added a two-run shot to right-center field in the sixth and Lowe leveled the contest with his blast to center field in the seventh.<\/p>\n
Morel\u2019s three-run homer and Walls\u2019 RBI double staked Tampa Bay to an early 4-0 lead. Edwards\u2019 double drove in a run and Sanchez\u2019s fifth homer of the season knotted the contest in the third.<\/p>\n

Edwards had an RBI single to drive starter Taj Bradley from the game, and Sanchez greeted Mason Montgomery with a double that drove in a pair. Hicks added a two-run double and scored on Myers\u2019 double to extend Miami\u2019s advantage to 10-6.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Heriberto Hernandez had a pinch-hit RBI single in the 10th inning to lift the visiting Miami Marlins to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":88188,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2395],"tags":[5,1751,16506,891,1951,4789,9635,1099,17906,4942,1382,7728,1816,1097,778,58,4171,4,4284,763,2550,68,5521,6878],"class_list":{"0":"post-88187","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-miami-marlins","8":"tag-baseball","9":"tag-brandon-lowe","10":"tag-cade-gibson","11":"tag-christopher-morel","12":"tag-dane-myers","13":"tag-danny-jansen","14":"tag-evan-longoria","15":"tag-garrett-cleavinger","16":"tag-heriberto-hernandez","17":"tag-jesus-sanchez","18":"tag-kameron-misner","19":"tag-liam-hicks","20":"tag-marlins","21":"tag-mason-montgomery","22":"tag-miami","23":"tag-miami-marlins","24":"tag-miamimarlins","25":"tag-mlb","26":"tag-otto","27":"tag-taj-bradley","28":"tag-tampa-bay","29":"tag-tampa-bay-rays","30":"tag-taylor-walls","31":"tag-xavier-edwards"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/114647118999337394","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88187","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=88187"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/88187\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/88188"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=88187"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=88187"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=88187"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
