Petersen, Mack, Edwards lead the Marlins to a 2-0 win over the Mets

NEW YORK (AP) — Michael Petersen worked out of a bases-loaded jam with no outs in the seventh inning as the Miami Marlins beat the Mets 2-0 Sunday shortly after New York traded opening day starter Freddy Peralta to Tampa Bay. Joe Mack homered, Xavier Edwards added an RBI single and Sandy Alcantara tossed six-plus solid innings for the Marlins, who won the final three games of the four-game series. Miami slugged six homers in the series, while the Mets went deep twice. Alcantara (12-6) allowed four hits, including Luis Robert Jr.’s single and Jared Young’s double to open the seventh, and struck out five. Petersen walked Marcus Semien before striking out Jorge Polanco and Francisco Alvarez and coaxed A.J. Ewing into a ground out to second. Pete Fairbanks worked around a pair of walks in the ninth and earned his 17th save for the Marlins, who entered Sunday 1 1/2 games behind Philadelphia for the final National League playoff spot.
