Marlins Come Back On Braves

     The Miami Marlins overcame a five-run deficit and slipped by the Atlanta Braves 6-5 at Marlins Park on Friday night. The Fish have two more games left in the regular season.
     Ozzie Albies led off the contest with a solo home run to right field on a 1-0 pitch for Atlanta(71-89). Four batters later, Lane Adams blasted a three-run homer to left on a 1-0 count which scored Kurt Suzuki and Freddie Freeman.
     The Braves made it a five-run gap in the second inning. Suzuki doubled to deep left for Albies to score on the play.
     The Marlins began to mount a comeback during the bottom of the sixth. Marcell Ozuna knocked in Dee Gordon and Giancarlo Stanton with a double into left field.
     Miami(76-84) put together four runs in the seventh inning and got their first lead of the game. Stanton got an infield base hit and Tyler Moore crossed the plate. Ozuna followed with a single into center field for Miguel Rojas to score. Two batters later, Justin Bour ripped a single to right-center field to bring home Stanton and Ozuna.
