KIFI

MIAMI (AP) — Brian Anderson atoned for a costly error with a two-run triple in the 11th inning and the Miami Marlins beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 3-2 Thursday. Anderson originally was ruled to have been hit by a pitch from Wil Crowe but the Pirates successfully challenged it hit his bat first. Anderson then sent a drive to deep right center that scored Jesús Aguilar and Avisaíl García. Ben Gamel’s RBI double against Richard Bleier in the top of the 11th put the Pirates ahead 2-1. Pittsburgh tied it at 1 in the eighth on third baseman Anderson’s fielding error that scored Yoshi Tsutsugo from first.
