Atlanta Braves vs Miami Marlins Match Player Stats On May 05, 2019

Ender Inciarte slapped an opposite-field, RBI double down the third-base line in the 10th inning to put the Atlanta Braves on top for good in a 3-1 victory over the host Miami Marlins.

Atlanta started the 10th-inning rally when pinch-hitter Josh Donaldson led off with a full-count walk. Donaldson, who missed three recent games due to a calf injury, was lifted for a pinch runner - pitcher Max Fried. Inciarte then faked a bunt before producing his decisive double.

The Marlins had a chance to get Fried, who was stumbling badly as he approached the plate. But catcher Chad Wallach couldn't handle shortstop Miguel Rojas' one-hop relay throw, and Fried dove for the plate safely.

Charlie Culbertson followed with a sacrifice fly to help give Atlanta its second run of the inning to help seal the team's second three-game sweep of the season. The Braves also swept the Chicago Cubs in a series April 1-4.

Both starting pitchers left with no-decisions despite tossing six scoreless innings each. Atlanta's Julio Teheran allowed two hits - both singles - two walks and hit one batter, while striking out four. Miami's Pablo Lopez allowed three hits and one walk while striking out six.

Josh Tomlin (1-0) earned the win despite allowing the Marlins to tie the score in the eighth. Luke Jackson earned his second save of the season, stranding a runner at third to end it.

Tayron Guerrero (1-1) took the loss, allowing both runs in the 10th thanks to a pair of walks and the Inciarte double.

Neither team had a hit until the fourth inning. That's when Atlanta threatened, putting runners on the corners following Nick Markakis' hit-and-run single. But Tyler Flowers grounded into a double play to end the rally.

Miami put two runners into scoring position in the bottom of the fourth, following Martin Prado's single and Neil Walker's walk. But Miguel Rojas struck out swinging to close the inning.

Leading off the seventh, Markakis pulled a home run to right, his third, to give Atlanta a 1-0 lead. Markakis was the first batter of the game for Marlins reliever Drew Steckenrider, who served up an up-and-in, 94-mph fastball.

Miami tied the score in the eighth as Jon Berti and Prado singled to set up the scoring chance. With one out, Brian Anderson hit a 1-2 curveball for an RBI single to left.
