MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) — The Miami Marlins must be getting tired of seeing the Washington Nationals.
Anthony Rendon drove in four runs, Daniel Murphy drove in three more and the Nationals overcame a camera-denting home run by Miami’s Giancarlo Stanton to beat the Marlins 7-2 on Monday night.
Murphy and Rendon each hit two-run doubles in the seventh to help the Nationals break the game open. Rendon also hit his 23rd home run in the second inning, and Murphy followed with his 21st an inning later.
Combined, they were 6 for 9. The rest of the Nationals were 2 for 26.
