Overview

  • Manny Machado hit a tying solo homer in the eighth inning, marking his third long ball in the last three games and ending his early-season power slump.
  • Tyler Wade scored the winning run in the 11th inning when Marlins reliever Cade Gibson uncorked a wild pitch that allowed him to slide home.
  • Adrian Morejon stranded a Miami runner at third base in the 11th to earn the win and extend the bullpen’s streak of scoreless relief innings.
  • Randy Vásquez provided six-plus solid innings, surrendering three runs with four strikeouts to help stabilize the rotation after Michael King was placed on the injured list.
  • San Diego has won three of its last four games after snapping a six-game skid with a series-clinching win over the Atlanta Braves.
