By ALANIS THAMES (AP Sports Writer) MIAMI (AP) — Jesús Sánchez hit a three-run homer and doubled twice to help the Miami Marlins beat the Texas Rangers 8-2 on Friday night. Sánchez homered off reliever Jesus Tinoco, who had given up consecutive one-out singles before Sánchez lifted his seventh pitch of the at-bat 417 feet to center to put Miami ahead 7-2 in the seventh. “Sánchez, there are some guys that are getting hits, and for some guys, they’re loud,” said Marlins manager Skip Schumaker.
