MIAMI (AP) — The Los Angeles Dodgers went 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position against Wei-Yin Chen and four relievers and were beaten by a last-place team for the fifth straight game, losing to the Miami Marlins 4-2 Tuesday night.
Los Angeles managed only five hits after being swept in a four-game series at home by woeful Cincinnati.
Chen, who came into the game with an ERA of 10.22, allowed no runs but departed after 4 1/3 innings and 83 pitches. Nick Wittgren (2-0) replaced him and worked 1 2/3 perfect innings to lower his ERA to 0.
