Marlins starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani looked more than ready for the majors in his debut Wednesday, a 13-3 win over the Dodgers.
DeSclafani, called up from Double-A Jacksonville to start in place of the injured Jose Fernandez, tossed six strong innings in his first outing. He limited the Dodgers to two runs on seven hits, and the offense provided plenty of support for his first win. The 24-year-old struck out seven and walked just one batter, while throwing 66 of 93 pitches for strikes.
With the signing of Randy Wolf, who piggybacked DeSclafani in relief Wednesday, it is not clear if DeSclafani will get another chance to start for the Marlins. His next turn in the rotation is set for Tuesday against the Phillies.
