Overturned double play helps Marlins beat Angels
ANAHEIM: A replay review and overturned call helped key a four-run 10th inning that propelled the Miami Marlins to an 8-5 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday night.
The Marlins took a 5-4 lead in the 10th and loaded the bases with one out. However, the Angels appeared to get out of the jam on a pitcher-to-catcher-tofirst double play. On a Marlins review, the catcher’s foot was not on home plate as he fielded the throw. A run scored to make it 6-4, and with the inning extended, Garrett Hampson followed with a two-run single.
Marlins reliever Dylan Floro (3-2) picked up the win with a scoreless ninth inning. Jaime Barria (1-2) took the loss and was charged with the four runs in the 10th, all unearned.
Jorge Soler hit a two-run blast homer for Miami. He has homered in five consecutive games. Gio Urshela homered, doubled and drove in three runs for the Angels.
Isiah Kiner-Falefa hit a game-winning single with one out in the 10th inning to lift New York past visiting San Diego 3-2.
Kiner-Falefa hit a 2-0 pitch down the left-field line just past the glove of third baseman Rougned Odor to score Greg Allen, who ran for automatic runner Anthony Rizzo.
Fernando Tatis Jr homered for the second straight game to account for San Diego’s lone hit off Luis Severino, who allowed two runs (one earned) and one hit in 6 2/3 innings in his home debut after returning on Sunday in Cincinnati from a strained right lat.
Willi Castro belted two home runs and had three RBIs as Minnesota held on to defeat visiting Toronto 9-7.
Matt Wallner added a solo homer and three RBIs to highlight his first career four-hit game and help the Twins gain a split of the first two contests of the three-game series.
