Pinch-hitter Derek Dietrich hit an RBI triple with two out in the ninth inning Sunday, and the Miami Marlins beat the St. Louis Cardinals 5-4 to earn a split of their four-game series. The score was tied with two out in the ninth when Adeiny Hechavarria - who had made a costly throwing error earlier - singled off Matt Bowman (1-3). Dietrich then hit a drive into the left-field gap, and center fielder Tommy Pham's try at a diving backhanded catch failed, allowing Hechavarria to score without a play.
