Dee Gordon hit the first inside-the-park homer in the four-year history of Marlins Park on Tuesday night, and the three-run shot helped Miami beat the San Francisco Giants, 5-3.
In the second inning, Gordon drove the ball to right-center, where right fielder Gregor Blanco chased it down just short of the wall and tried to flip it with his glove behind his back to center fielder Angel Pagan, but they missed the connection. Gordon kept running and scored easily with a headfirst slide.
Mat Latos (3-5) gave up three runs, two earned, in six innings.
