Miami starter Edinson Volquez was wild, but he was able to scatter five hits and five walks while allowing just two runs in five innings. The right-hander improved to 8-0 in 12 career starts against the Cubs, making him one of just three active pitchers to have eight or more wins and zero losses against an opponent. The others are Jason Hammel (9-0 vs. the Nationals) and Clayton Kershaw (8-0 vs. the Mets).
Mike Montgomery (1-4) went six innings in his first career start against the Marlins, and after three unearned runs in the first inning, he shut down Miami on one hit over the final five frames and retired the last 10 batters he faced.
