MIAMI (AP) — Joey Meneses hit a tiebreaking two-run single in the eighth inning and the Washington Nationals beat the Miami Marlins 3-1 on Friday night.
Jacob Young and Trey Lipscomb had two hits each while Derek Law (1-1) struck out five over two scoreless innings of relief for the Nationals.
“That’s a good win on the road — first game of a series,” Nationals manager Dave Martinez said. “The boys really fought. Really proud of the group. It was a group effort.”
The Marlins lost their fourth straight and dropped to an NL-worst 6-21. They remain winless this season in series openers.
“We are not gonna quit. That’s not who we are,” Marlins manager Skip Schumaker said. “That’s not in my DNA.”
Marlins reliever Calvin Faucher (1-1) allowed a leadoff single to Lipscomb and walked CJ Abrams with one out. Jesse Winker reached on an infield single before Meneses hit a line drive to center.
