Miami pitcher Ricky Nolasco (0-1) surrendered three runs and six hits over 5 1/3 innings during the Marlins' 7-3 loss to the Mets Saturday. Nolasco was unable to duplicate his quality start from opening day against the Nationals as his walks increased from two to three and strikeouts decreased from five to three in the no-decision.
He is scheduled to take the hill Friday against Philadelphia. The right-hander posted a 2-1 record and 5.21 ERA in three starts against the Phillies last season.
