With Michael Grove making a spot start in place of the injured Tony Gonsolin, the rookie right-hander gave up a leadoff double in the first to Joey Wendle that led to a Marlins run.

Two innings later, however, the Dodgers got it back and more, thanks to a two-run home run by Will Smith.

Earlier Monday, Smith had been named as an addition to next spring’s Team USA roster for the World Baseball Classic — where the final rounds will just so happen to be held back here in Miami.

For now, he collected his 19th home run and 75th RBI of the season.

Mid 3rd: Dodgers lead 2-1
