Even with the Marlins up 5-0 in the top of the fifth inning on Saturday night, no lead feels safe against the mighty Rays. Left fielder Harold Ramirez smelled a possible infield hit when he chopped the ball to the left side of the infield, so he busted it down the line at max effort.
His body failed him.

Ramirez, consoled by teammates, laid on the ground near the first base bag for nearly six minutes until a cart arrived to drive him off the field.
