Marlins Reach 100th Loss On Season After Falling 6-4 To Nationals

MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) — The Miami Marlins reached their 100th loss on the season after falling 6-4 to the Washington Nationals on Friday night.

Trea Turner hit two solo homers for Washington, who had dropped four of six. It began the day with a one-game lead over Milwaukee for the top spot in the NL wild-card standings.

Manager Dave Martinez rejoined the Nationals following a heart procedure that caused him to miss a three-game series at St. Louis. The 54-year-old was back in the dugout four days after a cardiac catheterization.

Before Miami’s 100th loss, the team announced manager Don Mattingly had agreed to a two-year extension.
