SAN DIEGO -- Miami Marlins rookie second baseman Ronny Simon committed three errors in three innings that helped the San Diego Padres rally from a six-run deficit en route to an 8-6 victory on Tuesday night.
Simon originally had been charged with a fourth error but the official scorer changed their decision to a single by Xander Bogaerts.
Simon's misfortunes started in the second when he dove for Tyler Wade's grounder, which deflected off his glove for an RBI single and rolled into foul territory. He chased down the ball and his errant throw pulled catcher Agustin Ramirez well off the plate, allowing another run to score.
Simon's fielding error allowed Wade to reach leading off the fourth. Simon fielded Fernando Tatis Jr.'s grounder and tried to force Wade at second but his throw went over shortstop Javier Sanoja's head for another error. Wade scored on Luis Arraez's single to tie it at 6.
Simon was replaced in the bottom of the fifth when Javier Sanoja moved over from shortstop. Otto Lopez entered at shortstop and in Simón's spot in the order.
San Diego went ahead 7-6 in the fifth, and the Marlins failed to score again.
