Bullpen falters as bad luck and bad pitching leads to a 9-7 loss to Miami

With a chance to return to .500, Ian Anderson took the mound after a strong start in San Diego. Things did not start off well for Ian, however, as Jazz Chisholm took the first pitch deep and he then allowed two of the next three batters on with singles. He did escape the jam with a double-play, to keep the deficit very manageable for the offense with a sub-par pitcher on the mound for the Marlins. Ozzie matched Chisholm’s bomb with a bomb of his own on the first pitch from Miami’s Hernandez. Matt Olson absolutely scalded a low line drive to the left side at 111.
