MIAMI -- The Miami Marlins snapped out of a scoring slump, earning their first win of the season with a 10-9 win in 10 innings over the Tampa Bay Rays at Marlins Park.

Second baseman Dee Gordon hit a one-out double and scored on left fielder Christian Yelich's one-out game-winning single.

Gordon finished with three hits and four runs scored.

Right fielder Giancarlo Stanton gave the Marlins a 9-8 lead in the eighth with a hard single up the middle. That scored Gordon, who had reached on a fielder's choice and advanced to second on a steal, his second of the night.

Steve Cishek (45.00 ERA) blew a save chance in the ninth, allowing a leadoff double by right fielder Brandon Guyer and a single by Bobby Gordon that tipped off the glove of a diving Gordon.

Shortstop Asdrubal Cabrera then hit a chopper to first baseman Michael Morse, who could have stepped on the bag and held the runner at third. Instead, Morse threw to second to start a potential game-ending double play. His gamble failed, however, when Cabrera beat the relay, and Guyer came home to tie the score.

The Marlins (1-3), who had scored a combined total of just three runs in their first three games, busted out with the help of a six-run fourth inning.

Miami's big hits that inning included shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria's RBI double -- his first hit of the season --Yelich's two-run single, Stanton's two-run double and Morse's RBI single.

Tampa Bay trailed 8-1 before rallying against the Miami bullpen for seven runs in the seventh inning, thanks primarily to three bases-loaded walks and a three-run pinch-hit double by David DeJesus.

Right-hander Dan Haren made his Marlins debut, allowing four hits, no walks and one run in six innings. He got a no-decision after the Rays rallied against the Miami bullpen.

The Rays (1-3), who have four starting pitchers on the disabled list, were forced to use a committee approach to get through the game.

Tampa Bay opened with rookie right-hander Steve Geltz, who lasted just two innings in his first big-league start. Reliever Erasmo Ramirez, a right-hander, got hit for the big fourth inning, elevating his ERA to 31.50.

NOTES: The Rays placed OF/DH John Jaso (left wrist contusion) on the disabled list. He got hurt sliding into second base on Monday. ... The Rays recalled Mikie Mahtook from Triple-A Durham. ... The Rays lead the majors with nine players on the DL, including seven who have gotten hurt since March 8. ... Rays LHP Drew Smyly (shoulder tendinitis) pitched two perfect innings on Thursday in his first rehab outing with the Class A Charlotte Stone Crabs. ... RHP Alex Colome (pneumonia) will start for the Stone Crabs on Saturday as part of his rehab. ... RHP Ronald Bellisario (shoulder fracture) will pitch extended spring training this weekend. ... Other than a change at catcher for one game, Miami started the same lineup in its first four games. ... During the last week of spring training, Marlins 3B Martin Prado, wanting to be a positive role model, treated 47 Hispanic players in the organization -- mostly minor-leaguers -- to dinner at Yardhouse.
