MIAMI (AP) - Dontrelle Willis pitched a five-hit shutout and Miguel Cabrera homered twice to lead the Florida Marlins to a 9-0 win over the Washington Nationals on Friday night.
Willis (1-0), the 2003 Rookie of the Year, allowed just one walk and frustrated a Washington team that had 40 hits in its season-opening three-game series at Philadelphia. It was the third career shutout for the left-hander, who went 10-11 last season.
Cabrera, who led the Marlins with 33 homers last season, hit a two-run shot off Antonio Osuna in the Marlins' six-run eighth. Willis later added a two-run single off Joey Eischen.
