Marlins Flashback: José Fernández's first career home run

September 11, 2013—Marlins Park, Miami, FL

We all miss José Fernández. We miss his beaming character and playful nature. We miss the excitement and attitude that he brought to the Marlins organization.

Fernández pitched seven innings and only gave up one earned run against the Atlanta Braves. A great performance that everybody had grown accustomed to seeing from the young All-Star.

However, what happened in the bottom of the sixth inning was the real headliner.

Fernández was up to bat with two outs.
