Deadspin | Marlins strive to extend scoreless-innings streak vs. Mets

The Miami Marlins have the worst record in the major leagues but suddenly have the hottest pitching staff, with three straight shutouts. Miami has thrown 28 consecutive scoreless innings, which is three short of the franchise record set in 2004. After blanking the New York Mets 8-0 on Friday, the Marlins will look to inflict even more damage on Saturday afternoon in the second game of the weekend series. "It comes down to how good (Jesus) Luzardo was tonight," Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said of the Marlins pitcher who beat his team on Friday.
