Fortes bomb, Luzardo pitching gem lead Marlins past Mets

1 of 5 | Miami Marlins starting pitcher Jesus Luzardo pitched six scoreless innings to beat the New York Mets on Friday in Miami. MIAMI, May 17 (UPI) -- Nick Fortes lifted his left leg and stepped into a sweeper, ambushing the offering for a 396-foot, three-run homer to help the Miami Marlins beat the New York Mets for their third-consecutive shutout win Friday in Miami. The catcher's blast was part of a four-run second-inning for the Marlins, who also got a pristine performance from starter Jesus Luzardo in the 8-0 victory at loanDepot park.
