Duvall hits 2 HRs, drives in 7 as Marlins rout Braves 14-8

ATLANTA (AP) — Adam Duvall drove in seven runs against his former Atlanta teammates with four hits, including two home runs, and the Miami Marlins beat Max Fried and the Braves 14-8 on Tuesday night.

Duvall's two-run double during a four-run fourth inning gave Miami the lead. He hit his first homer of the game in the third inning and added a three-run shot in the seventh. He has three homers in the first two games of the series, giving him four for the season.

Duvall tied a Marlins record by becoming the sixth player to drive in seven.

The Marlins signed Duvall to a $5 million, one-year deal after he hit five homers in nine games for Atlanta against Miami last season. Now he's proving he can produce on the other side of the NL East rivalry.

Brian Anderson also homered for Miami, which has won three consecutive games.

Fried (0-1) gave up eight runs, seven earned, and nine hits in four innings.

Marcell Ozuna hit a two-run homer off Pablo López, and Ozzie Albies added another homer to give Atlanta a 3-0 lead in the first inning.

The Marlins tied it in the second and took the lead with a four-run rally in the fourth that broke a 4-4 tie. With two outs, Fried hit Starling Marte and Garrett Cooper with pitches to help load the bases before Duvall's double to the leftcfield wall drove in two.

Anderson, who drove in three on three hits, capped the big inning with a two-run single to center field.

Braves manager Brian Snitker juggled his lineup. Albies moved down three spots to hit fifth. Freddie Freeman hit second, where he spent most of the 2020 season, instead of third. Also, Ehire Adrianza started at third base for Austin Riley.

The Braves began the day hitting only .206 and were 1 for 11 with runners in scoring position in Monday night's 5-3 loss to the Marlins in 10...
