Ex-Pirate Marte suffers broken rib

MIAMI — Miami Marlins center fielder Starling Marte will be sidelined for at least a few games with a broken left rib.

Marte grimaced while batting with two outs in the ninth inning of Sunday’s loss to San Francisco and left the game. He’s batting .316 with an OPS of .912, three stolen bases and two home runs.
