Hanley Ramirez’s 16-game hitting streak came to an end Saturday night as the Marlins lost to the Braves 4-3.

Chris Volstad gave up a lead-off homerun to Omar Infante, then gave up an additional three runs before the inning was over. That was all the Braves needed.

Volstad ended up pitching only four innings, earning the loss to bring his record to 9-10.

The Marlins didn’t get a hit until the fifth inning when Jeremy Hermida singled with two outs.
