Marlins Blow Lead, Then Recover To Beat Tigers 5-4 In 11

DETROIT (CBSMiami/AP) — After an absolutely dreadful start to the season, the Miami Marlins are starting to show signs of life.

Chad Wallach hit a tiebreaking double in the 11th inning, and the Marlins beat Detroit 5-4 on Tuesday night after the Tigers tied it in a wild bottom of the ninth.

Detroit forced extra innings by scoring two unearned runs off Miami closer Sergio Romo. The bottom of the ninth included an error, two replay reversals and the ejection of Tigers manager Ron Gardenhire.

That was the only success Detroit had against the Miami bullpen, though.
