The Miami Marlins faced a tough opponent in Cleveland pitcher Jim Acosta, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Progressive Field by a final score of 5-2. Acosta went 7 innings and allowed 3 runs. Miami has run its win streak to 4 straight.

Alan O'Keefe came through with a big-time hit for Miami. The pinch hitter smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to give his team the lead, 3-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

Said Cleveland manager Tristan Bugbie: "They just got the better of us."
