Although the Miami Marlins were unable to sustain their winning streak to a seventh game on Friday afternoon, not everything that happens in a loss is a negative. Especially when that loss is in Spring Training.
Demetrius Sims had his first ever major league Spring Training plate appearance, and collected a one-out double. He later scored on a Christian Lopes RBI-single.
Magneuris Sierra, in today’s game a designated hitter, basically manufactured a run nearly by himself in the first inning. After an infield single, he stole second and moved to third on a throwing error by the catcher on the play.
