Kyle Stowers homered and scored on Otto L\u00f3pez’s go-ahead double to lead the Miami Marlins to a 2-1 win against the San Francisco Giants on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Ryan Gusto and four relievers limited the Giants to four hits as the Marlins won their eighth straight at home. Miami is a major league best 14-4 in June.<\/p>\n
Neither team scored after L\u00f3pez snapped a 1-all tie in the fourth when his line drive rolled to the warning track in right and scored Stowers from first. Stowers drew a two-out-walk, the only one issued by Logan Webb.<\/p>\n
Webb (4-5) scattered five hits over eight innings for his first complete game of the season and fourth of his career. The right-hander has completed eight innings in each of his last three outings.<\/p>\n
John King (4-1) relieved Gusto and threw 1 1\/3 innings. Calvin Faucher got the next four outs and Michael Petersen threw a perfect eighth. Lake Bachar allowed a leadoff walk against Rafael Devers in the ninth but then retired Jung Hoo Lee and Willy Adames for his first save.<\/p>\n
Casey Schmitt singled twice for San Francisco.<\/p>\n
Stowers gave Miami an early lead with his homer to lead off the second. He drove the first pitch from Webb 426 feet into the center-field seats for his eighth homer.<\/p>\n
The Giants tied it on Schmitt’s run-scoring single in the third.<\/p>\n
Gusto gave up one run and three hits while striking out six over 4 1\/3 innings.<\/p>\n
Before the game, the Marlins placed slugger Liam Hicks on the injured list because of a low back strain and designated infielder Christopher Morel for assignment.<\/p>\n
Giants: LHP Robbie Ray (5-6, 4.07) will start the opener of a three-game home series against the Athletics on Tuesday. The Athletics have not announced a starter.<\/p>\n
Marlins: RHP Tyler Phillips (1-2, 3.10) will start the opener of a three-game home set against the Texas Rangers on Monday. The Rangers have not announced a starter.<\/p>\n
