Parker Messick took a no-hit-bid into the sixth inning, Chase DeLauter slugged a two-run home run and the Cleveland Guardians cooled off the host Miami Marlins 3-2 on Friday night, July 10.
All-Star closer Cade Smith pitched a scoreless ninth, earning his major-league-best 28th save. It was the third time in three days that Smith pitched.
It was also DeLauter's 10th homer of the season — one less than team leader Angel Martinez, who hasn't played since June 13 because of a foot injury.
Messick (8-5) lasted six innings, allowing one hit, four walks and one run. The left-hander struck out just one batter, but he got 10 groundouts.
DeLauter and Messick are both rookies.
