MLB wrap: Marlins use record-setting inning to pull away from Brewers image

The Marlins offense delivered in a big way Tuesday.

Miami scored a franchise-record 11 runs in the fifth inning and cruised to a 16-0 blowout win over the Brewers at Miller Park.

Ten Marlins players drove in at least one run while five recorded at least two RBIs.

Starlin Castro blasted a two-run homer in the first inning and the runs kept coming for the Marlins.

Garrett Cooper and Brian Anderson also hit back-to-back home runs for Miami in the third.

Pablo Lopez picked up the win for Miami after pitching six scoreless innings. Brewers starter Chase Anderson was charged with the loss.

Studs of the night

Four Blue Jays relievers combined to allow one run over 4 1/3 innings of work in the team’s 4-3 win over the Yankees.

Francisco Lindor went 3 for 3 with three RBIs in the Indians’ 5-2 win over the Twins.

Duds of the night

Mike Zunino went 0 for 4 in the Rays’ 9-6 loss to the Tigers. He’s hitting .196 this season.

Robert Gsellman surrendered five earned runs and recorded one out in the Mets’ 9-3 loss to the Giants.

Highlights

What a catch.

Austin Riley with another home run.

What’s next

Rockies (31-28) at Cubs (33-26) — Colorado’s eight-game winning streak was snapped with a 6-3 loss to Chicago on Tuesday. It will look to bounce back in the middle game of the three-game series. The Rockies will send German Marquez (6-2, 3.48 ERA) to the mound while the Cubs will counter with Yu Darvish (2-3, 5.02 ERA).
