DENVER (AP) — Derek Dietrich was hoping for a chance at history but settled for a win in a torrid month for the Miami outfielder.
He homered for the third straight game, leading Miami over the Colorado Rockies 8-5 on Sunday.
Dietrich doubled, homered and singled in his first three at-bats but managed just a single in his last two trips to the plate before leaving in the seventh inning. He tied a career high with four hits. He would have been the first Marlins player ever to hit for the cycle.
MIAMI (AP) — Despite taking a shutout into the sixth inning, Caleb Smith was most proud of what he did with the bat.
Smith had an RBI single for his first career hit to help the Miami Marlins beat the San Diego Padres 4-0 Friday night.
"Probably the first hit, definitely more proud of that today," Smith said.
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Miami's Caleb Smith was brilliant in dominating a matchup of rookie left-handers that went poorly for San Diego's Eric Lauer.
Smith (4-5) allowed one run and four hits in seven-plus innings, Yadiel Rivera's two-run single capped Miami's four-run first inning and Cameron Maybin had three hits and two RBIs against his old team to lead the Marlins to a 7-2 victory against the Padres on Monday.

NEW YORK (AP) — A few more starts like this and Caleb Smith might start getting a lot more attention.
The 26-year-old lefty pitched neatly into the seventh inning against a Mets lineup that included newcomer Jose Bautista, leading the Miami Marlins over New York 5-1 on a damp Tuesday night.
Smith (3-5) fanned eight, and leads all major league rookies with 65 strikeouts. He's allowed no more than three hits in five of his last six starts.
CINCINNATI (AP) — The Miami Marlins didn't know when spring training began whether Caleb Smith would be a better fit as a starter or as a left-hander out of the bullpen. Right now, he's as good as they've got in the rotation.
Smith gave his third straight impressive performance Saturday night, and Starlin Castro drove in three runs with a homer and a double, leading Miami to a 6-0 victory over the Cincinnati Reds.
MIAMI (AP) — Miami Marlins left-hander Caleb Smith glanced down at the newly acquired game ball and lineup card in his postgame locker and ranked them No. 1 among all his souvenirs.
"For now," he said with a grin.
The way Smith is pitching lately, there may be more memorabilia ahead.
LEADING OFF: Stanton sees Marlins, White Sox warm up
A look at what's happening all around the majors Monday:
REMEMBER ME?
Giancarlo Stanton faces his former teammates when the Marlins visit Yankee Stadium. The slugger led the majors with 59 home runs and was the NL MVP last year, then was traded to New York. Stanton is hitting .220 with three homers for the Yankees, striking out 25 times in 59 at-bats. Caleb Smith starts for Miami — he pitched for the Yanks last year, and was sent to the Marlins in a separate deal.
JUPITER, Fla. (AP) — Miami Marlins right-hander Dan Straily has mild right forearm inflammation and will not throw for five or six days, raising the possibility his first start of the season will be delayed.
Straily, who tied for the NL lead with 33 starts last year, had been scheduled to pitch in the Marlins' second game March 30 against the Chicago Cubs. He complained of arm stiffness and had an MRI that revealed the inflammation.
Yankees raise available money for Ohtani to $3.5 million
NEW YORK (AP) — The Yankees raised their available signing bonus money for Japanese star Shohei Ohtani to $3.5 million, acquiring $250,000 in pool money from the Miami Marlins on Monday for left-hander Caleb Smith and first baseman Garrett Cooper.
New York has the second-highest total of available international signing bonus money behind the Texas Rangers at $3,535,000. Minnesota is third at $3,245,000, followed by Pittsburgh ($2,266,750), Seattle ($1,557,500) and Miami ($1.49 million).
