WSH 1, MIA 5; Poteet makes the most of first start

It was not Max Meyer on the mound for Miami at loanDepot Park on Tuesday. Rather, right-hander Cody Poteet made his first start of the season against the lowly Washington Nationals. So far in 2022, Poteet had thrown 16.1 innings out of the bullpen, and allowed just one earned run. He went up against Joan Adon in the second game of the series.

The Marlins beat the Nats by a score of 5-1, and have now won their first 5 contests against Washington. It’s been more than a decade since the last streak like that in Miami’s favor.
