MIAMI (AP) Fernando Tatís Jr. hit his NL-leading 30th homer for an early lead but the Miami Marlins rallied late and defeated the San Diego Padres 3-2 Saturday night.
Jesús Aguilar lined a go-ahead, two-run single to center with one out in the seventh inning after reliever Tim Hill (5-5) walked pinch hitter Sandy León and allowed consecutive singles to Miguel Rojas and Starling Marte. Aguilar’s single scored pinch runner Magneuris Sierra and Rojas.
Weathers tossed 4.0 shutout innings and looked pretty good in his first outing since going on the 10-day IL with an ankle injury. He also hammered a solo homer to straightaway centerfield off Miami starter Braxton Garrett. As it turns out, that would be the last run the Friars scored.
After the 3rd inning the Padres didn t get another hit but struck out eight more times and five of those were looking. That s a ridiculously high number for an offense as talented as San Diego s. Replays showed none of those backwards K s were anywhere near the strike zone. Eddings was giving several inches off the outside corner (but, curiously, did not extend the same courtesy to Padres pitchers).
