Marlins Lose To Mets

    There were several big rallies and lead changes in this game as the Miami Marlins fell to the New York Mets 6-5 at Marlins Park on Monday night. The Marlins had a five-game winning streak against the Mets snapped.
    New York(47-56) jumped out to a 3-0 lead during the third inning against Jacob Turner. Daniel Murphy slapped a two-out single to left field for Anthony Recker and Omar Quintanilla to score. David Wright followed with a double into the left-field corner which brought in Murphy.
    Their lead slipped away as Miami(40-64) put up a three-spot in the bottom of the fourth inning off Jeremy Hefner. Two batters after Giancarlo Stanton led off with a double to deep center field, he scored on an RBI-triple to center by Ed Lucas. The Marlins would later load the bases with two out in the frame. Lucas and Donovan Solano would score on an error by Quintanilla as Turner reached first.
    The Fish would take their only lead of the game in the sixth inning with two runs. Lucas advanced to third on a single to left-center field by Christian Yelich as he took second on the throw with one out. Both scored on a single by Jeff Mathis into left field and gave the Marlins a 5-3 lead.
    The Mets would regain the lead with another three runs in the top of the seventh inning. Mike Dunn relieved Turner with one out and gave up two consecutive hits. Eric Young Jr. doubled to deep left field and scored on a single by Murphy into center. The Fish made another pitching change as A.J. Ramos came into the game. After Wright flew out to right, Murphy stole second and went to third on a wild pitch. Marlon Byrd knocked in Murphy on a base hit into center and he would cross the plate with the game-winning run when the next batter Ike Davis doubled to right field.
