MIAMI (CBSMiami/AP) – Marlins pitcher Jose Urena worked eight innings, Lewis Brinson tripled twice and Miami beat Baltimore 2-0 Friday night to stretch the Orioles’ losing streak to a season-high eight games.
In an interleague matchup between two offensively challenged last-place teams, the Marlins scratched out a couple of runs against Kevin Gausman (3-6) for their fourth win in five games.
It’s Baltimore’s longest skid since a nine-game slide in July 2011. The Orioles have lost 15 of 17 overall and 10 straight at home, scoring only 14 runs.
Urena (2-8) struck out four and walked one in his longest outing of the season.
