MIAMI — The Marlins scored for the first time in 27 innings, pounded Jacob deGrom for seven runs in five innings and snapped a seven-game losing streak by beating the Mets, 8-6, on Friday night. Garrett Cooper’s two-run single in the third brought home Miami’s first runs since Saturday — also against deGrom. Jorge Alfaro hit a 456-foot home run, only the Marlins’ second homer this month, and drove in three. DeGrom (3-5) gave up nine hits, and the run total against him was a season high. Pete Alonso hit two solo home runs for the Mets, giving him 14 this year.
