Mitre remains in a rough stretch, as he dropped his third straight decision in his last
outing. In 3 1/3 innings, the right-hander gave up six runs on seven hits, while tying
a franchise record by hitting three batters in the game. Actually, Mitre became the
first Marlin and the 24th pitcher in MLB history to log three hit batters in the same
inning. Mitre's last win was on July 29 at San Francisco. He has given up at least
five earned runs in four straight outings.

Redding was shaky during his five innings on the mound against the Giants. He walked
five batters and retired the side in order only once, and that occurred in the fifth
inning. By the time he left the game, he already threw 104 pitches.
