MIAMI — Luis Arraez had two hits to raise his major league-leading batting average to .401 and help the Miami Marlins beat the Kansas City Royals 6-1 on Tuesday night.
After Arraez flew out to left in his first two at-bats, he hit consecutive singles to finish 2 for 4 with an RBI.“It is an honor when I see that number on the scoreboard but as I’ve said before it is not impossible,” Arraez said in Spanish.Marlins starter Jesús Luzardo threw seven innings of one-run ball.Tanner Scott and Bryan Hoeing followed Luzardo, each throwing an inning to complete the five-hitter.
“We have an idea of the amount of innings Jesús has thrown in his career,” Marlins manager Skip Schumaker said. “He’s going to be on pace for a career high and we want to monitor it, throwing the extra inning when it’s needed.Miami broke open a scoreless game with a five-run fifth against Zack Greinke .The former Cy Young Award winner kept Miami hitless until Sánchez’s leadoff blast.“All of his pitches move,” Sánchez said about facing Greinke.
