Nick Neidert earned his first big-league win as the host Miami Marlins beat the first-place New York Mets 5-4 in a National League East matchup on Tuesday night.
Neidert (1-1), making his 11th major league appearance, allowed three runs, three hits and four walks in 5 2/3 innings.
The last-place Marlins received a stellar performance from rookie right fielder Bryan De La Cruz, acquired just before last week s trade deadline. De La Cruz went 3-for-4 with two RBIs. He also made several stellar defensive plays.
Miami also got solo homers from Alex Jackson and Isan Diaz. It was the first homer of the season for Jackson, a catching prospect acquired last week from the Atlanta Braves.
MIAMI (AP) Newly acquired Alex Jackson hit his first career home run, Nick Neidert earned his first big league win and the Miami Marlins beat the NL East-leading New York Mets 5-4 Tuesday night.
Isan Díaz also homered, Bryan De La Cruz had three hits and Lewis Brinson had two hits and scored twice for the last-place Marlins, who have won the first two of the four-game series.
“We had dicey moments at times but they worked through those dicey moments,” Miami acting manager James Rowson said. “Our guys did a nice job and once again did it as a team effort.”
