Durango product’s homer helps sink Marlins

ings.

Miami outfielder Ichiro Suzuki went 0-for-4 to remain at 2,998 career hits.

Martin Prado homered and drove in three runs, and Marcell Ozuna also homered for the Marlins.

Mike Leake (8-8) won despite giving up six runs and seven hits in five innings.

Jose Urena (1-3) allowed eight runs in 4 1/3 innings in what is expected to be his final start in the Marlins’ rotation after Miami acquired starters Andrew Cashner and Colin Rea from San Diego earlier in the day.

Hazelbaker homered off Urena in the second. It was their first encounter since the two were involved in a bench-clearing brawl in a minor league game on June 27.

“That’s the thing about baseball, and you usually have a chance to get back at somebody that you have a history with,” Hazelbaker said. “It was a satisfying time, and I’m glad that it happened.”

In that minor league game, Urena’s pitch went sailing near Hazelbaker’s head, prompting the two to square off, and punches were thrown.

“That history, you don’t forget about that stuff,” Matheny said. “That means something to guys when they get the opportunity to compete.”

St. Louis scored three in the second and six in the fifth for a 9-1 lead. Prado’s three-run homer highlighted the Marlins’ five-run rally in the fifth.
