Marlins Victorious Over Nationals In 10 Innings

MIAMI (AP) -- The Florida Marlins overcame a night of poor clutch hitting Tuesday when Donnie Murphy delivered bases-loaded, two-out single in the 10th inning to beat the Washington Nationals, 3-2.

An error by right fielder Jayson Werth led to the unearned run.

The Marlins came from behind twice but began the 10th inning 0 for 10 with runners in scoring position.

The Nationals went 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position. Through four games they're batting .121 (4 for 33) in those situations.
