MIAMI — Marlins third baseman Martin Prado was sidelined Friday night by a left hamstring injury, the latest in a series of leg issues threatening his career. Prado left Miami’s game against Washington after he pulled up limping while running out a grounder in the sixth inning. “At first I thought it was something minor, but as I passed the base, slowing down, the pain was sharper and sharper,” Prado said after the Marlins’ 9-5 loss. Prado had hits in his first three at-bats against Nationals ace Max Scherzer, and reached on an error when he was hurt. Miami manager Don Mattingly said Prado’s latest injury was especially deflating for the Marlins.
