The Marlins exhaled a bit Tuesday despite the eventual extra-inning loss to the Red Sox.
They saw the pitcher they were hoping Jose Ureña could be at the top of their rotation.
Ureña bounced back from a rough Opening Day start last week by tying a career high with seven strikeouts on a career-high 109 pitches.
Although Boston would prevail 4-2 in 13 innings, Ureña’s outing was a welcome rebound for the Marlins’ resilient No. 1 starter.
