Jesús Sánchez hit a massive solo homer and an RBI single, helping the Miami Marlins beat the Chicago Cubs 6-3 on Sunday.

Sánchez, Luis Arraez, Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Nick Fortes each had two hits as Miami salvaged a split of the four-game series. The last-place Marlins are 6-8 since they opened the season with nine consecutive losses.

Miami right-hander Edward Cabrera (1-0) pitched five innings of three-run ball in his second start. He struck out seven and walked three.

Chicago had won six of eight. Nico Hoerner had three hits and two RBIs for the Cubs, and Mike Tauchman had two hits and scored twice.

Kyle Hendricks (0-3) was pulled after just four innings, allowing four runs and six hits. The right-hander has a 12.00 ERA through five starts this season.

Miami jumped in front when Sánchez hit a 460-foot drive to center on an 88 mph fastball from Hendricks with one out in the second. It was the first homer for the outfielder after he hit 14 last year.

The Marlins opened the fourth with four consecutive singles on five pitches, producing two runs. Sánchez singled home Chisholm, and Tim Anderson’s liner to right drove in Josh Bell.

Sánchez scampered home on a fielder’s choice grounder by Emmanuel Rivera, giving the Marlins a 4-1 lead.

Chicago got two back in the bottom half on run-scoring hits for Hoerner and Cody Bellinger. But then Hoerner was thrown out when he tried to score on Christopher Morel’s grounder to third, and Michael Busch bounced to shortstop for the final out of the inning.

The Cubs went 3 for 16 with runners in scoring position and left nine runners on base.

After Cabrera departed, Bryan Hoeing, Andrew Nardi, Calvin Faucher and Tanner Scott combined for four innings of one-hit ball. Scott handled the ninth for his fourth save in five opportunities.
