The Miami Marlins (5-12) celebrated a 9-1 away win over the New York Yankees (8-8), creating a split in the two-match series. The celebrated hero was the young left-hander Jarlin Garcia, who set a record of over 60 years.
After the Yankees won their first game 12-1, the Marlins beat back on Tuesday. Already in the first inning three runs against Masahiro Tanaka (5 IP, 8 H, 7 R, 6 ER). Ex-Yankee Starlin Castro opened with an RBI single, after which the Yankees took two more runs after a Throwing Error by Shortstop Didi Gregorius.
On the record was J.T. Realmuto, who went one better in the fifth inning: The recovered wrestler beat a 3-run-homerun in the fifth inning and increased the guest lead to 8:0.
The rest was taken care of by rookie left-hander Jarlin Garcia, who only made his first hit in the fifth inning – a double by Miguel Andujar. He pitched a total of 10 1/3 innings in a row as a starter without allowing a hit – on his debut against the New York Mets he threw 6 no-hit innings before being replaced.
According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Garcia set the MLB record in the “Modern Era”. Bobo Holloman did such a series in 1953 for the St. Louis Browns. “No, I didn’t think about that,” Garcia said about his series of no-hit innings. “I was only interested in going out there, doing my job and helping the team win.”
Garcia pitched a total of five shutout innings (H, 5 BB) and was then allowed to rely on four relievers.
Ex-Yankees icon and current Marlins manager Don Mattingly summed up the presentation of his team as follows: “We’ve had a really good start from Jarlin again. We did a few runs early and got a little room to breathe and the guys just kept going. Our boys in the Bullpen were pretty good today. “All in all, it was a pretty good day for us.”
The Yankees, who only scored four hits but seven walks, had only one bright spot in the end: Rookie-third baseman Miguel Andujar. He beat his first Major League Homun in the ninth inning.
