Marlins pummel Pettitte

? The rookie-laden Florida Marlins looked like old pros against Andy Pettitte. Miguel Cabrera hit one of four Florida homers, and the Marlins roughed up Pettitte for 10 runs and 13 hits Tuesday in an 11-2 rout of the Houston Astros.

Josh Willingham connected twice, Mike Jacobs added a three-run shot, and Hanley Ramirez had four hits and three RBIs. Florida, with six rookies in its starting lineup and a major-league-low payroll of about $15 million, gave first-year manager Joe Girardi his first win.

Things went bad early for Pettitte, who allowed seven earned runs in 42â3 innings.

“Obviously, the starting pitcher, you’ve got to set the tone,” Pettitte said. “The first inning, give up three runs, that’s just terrible. It’s extremely disappointing. I’m embarrassed. I don’t know what to say. I’ve got to go around to every guy and apologize.”
