WSH 7, MIA 1; Marlins Lose Despite Rogers’ Best Performance
Jasen Vinlove-USA TODAY Sports The Miami Marlins wasted perhaps Trevor Rogers’ best start since officially being named an All-Star on July 4. Rogers struck out 10 in 5 1⁄3 innings while allowing just one earned run.
He missed about a month’s worth of starts in August while dealing with a personal family issue. When he returned, he still looked effective, but not as dominant as he did earlier in the season when he was garnering Rookie of the Year consideration.
But Tuesday night, he looked to be back in good form. He pitched through 5 innings for the first time since Jul. 20.
