MIAMI — Jorge Soler hit a pinch-hit, go-ahead home run in the seventh inning to lead the Miami Marlins to a 4-3 win over the San Francisco Giants on Monday at loanDepot park to begin a three-game series.
Soler’s home run, a 413-foot shot to straightaway center, was his first-ever hit against Giants starting pitcher Logan Webb. Soler was previously 0 for 10 with seven strikeouts against Webb.
It was also just the second-ever pinch-hit home run of Soler’s career. The other came on Sept. 21, 2015, against the Milwaukee Brewers when he was a member of the Chicago Cubs.
