WASHINGTON — Jake Burger had three hits, Jonah Bride and Connor Norby had two RBIs apiece and the Miami Marlins scored three unearned runs off three errors in a 6-3 victory over the Washington Nationals on Thursday night in the opener of a four-game series. Bride had a game-tying single in the eighth inning and Otto Lopez added a go-ahead grounder two batters later for the Marlins, who snapped a three-game losing streak and improved to 2-9 against the Nationals this season. Washington lost its 81st game, assuring its fifth straight season without a winning record since its 2019 World Series title.
