Braves offense awakens in Marlins 8-1 loss

This defensive mishap in the fifth inning just about sums it up: things always seem to go awry when José Ureña starts for the Marlins. The Braves took the lead with a four-run, small-ball rally before pulling away late against Jarlin García in the 8-1 victory on Saturday night.

Despite allowing nothing but singles, Ureña finished with a mediocre final line (6.0 IP, 5 H, 4 ER, 1 BB, 2 K), and the grounder bungled by Justin Bour and Starlin Castro is largely to blame.

For the 12th straight time, the Fish lost a game started by the hard-throwing right-hander.
