MIAMI — Jake Burger homered and doubled to help the Miami Marlins beat the New York Mets 6-4 on Friday night. Nick Fortes had two hits and an RBI, and Jazz Chisholm Jr. singled twice and stole a base for Miami. The Marlins overcame Jeff McNeil's two-homer game for New York. Down 5-4, New York threatened with one out against Miami reliever Calvin Faucher in the eighth when José Iglesias walked and McNeil reached on an infield single. A wild pitch from Faucher advanced both runners before Iglesias was tagged out at home while attempting to score on Harrison Bader's grounder to shortstop Xavier Edwards. Tanner Scott relieved Faucher and ended New York's threat en route to his 15th save.
