Marlins SP Brad Hand earns win in Sunday's start

Marlins pitcher Brad Hand produced his longest and most effective start of the season during Sunday's 4-1 win over the Braves.

Hand allowed one run on two hits over seven innings of work. He also struck out three and walked two. His biggest mistake was giving up a solo home run to Jonny Gomes in the seventh inning. Hand received his second win of the season for his effort.

Hand was making his fifth start of the season Sunday. He has earned a quality start in two of those outings.
