Diamondbacks starter Robbie Ray was due for a dud. And he got one against the wrong mound opponent Wednesday.
Matched up against sensational Marlins left-hander Jose Fernandez, he gave up four earned runs on five hits in 4 1/3 innings. Ray walked three and fanned four.
His failures began in the second inning when a double and walk were followed by a J.R. Realmuto double, sacrifice fly and Fernandez double that made it 3-0. An Ichiro Suzuki triple and Martin Prado single tallied two more and all but ended his night.
Ray now owns a season-high 2.72 ERA.
