 MIAMI (AP) - Chipper Jones homered on the first pitch of the 13th inning, and seven Atlanta pitchers shut out Florida for the final 11 1-3 innings to help the Braves win 2-1 on Wednesday night.
Jones drove in both Atlanta runs and finished 4-for-6. His homer to center field off Nate Bump (0-1) was estimated at 418 feet.
After scoring nine runs to win on opening day, the Marlins went 1-for-12 with runners in scoring position, and the only hit was an infield single. They set a team record by hitting into six double plays, including one in each of the first four innings and another in the 13th.
