ATLANTA -- Sugar Ray Marimon provided the Braves exactly what they needed Tuesday night, as he completed four solid innings while making his Major League debut during a 8-2 loss to the Marlins at Turner Field.
After starting pitcher Trevor Cahill exited with just one out in the third inning, the Braves were in jeopardy of taxing their bullpen for Wednesday afternoon's series finale. But as Marimon navigated his way through the four frames and picked up his first career hit along the way, he provided a contribution that could pay dividends over the remainder of the week.
