MIA 4, HOU 3; Marlins win their first off backs of Luzardo, timely hits

Seeking their first win in the Skip Schumaker era, the Marlins looked to Jesús Luzardo to set the tone at the Ballpark of the Palm Beaches. The tone was set as he began the game by striking out former AL MVP José Altuve with a nasty changeup. He induced a flyout to right field from Jeremy Pena, then got J.J. Matijevic to line one off his glove to Berti at short, who fired to Groshans at first for the out to end the inning.
