Home hasn’t been sweet for Jose Urena over the past year.
The feeling finally changed on Sunday afternoon.
Urena tossed six shutout innings and allowed only one hit while getting the Marlins started at the plate during a 5-0 shutout of the Washington Nationals in front of 12,112 at Marlins Park.
Urena, the Marlins’ Opening Day starter back on March 29th, picked up his first victory at Marlins Park since Sept. 20, 2017. Urena had not won at home in 13 previous home starts and gone 0-8 over that span with a 4.65 ERA.
