UNDATED (AP) — Atlanta Braves pitcher Shelby Miller lost a no-hitter in the ninth inning against Florida. Moments later, the Marlins lost a manager.

Miller is 5-1 with a 1.33 ERA after coming within one out of a no-hitter in a 6-0 win over the Marlins. The gem ended when Justin Bour hit a first-pitch single to center, preventing Miller from becoming the first Brave to toss a no-hitter since Kent Mercker (MUR'-kur) in 1994.

Major League batting leader Dee Gordon followed with an infield single before Miller completed his second shutout of the season.

Jace Peterson had a two-run single in Atlanta's five-run second inning.

The outcome dropped the Marlins to a disappointing 16-22 after many baseball forecasters expected them to challenge Washington for the NL East crown. The poor start has cost Mike Redmond his job after two-plus seasons as Miami's manager.

Redmond was 166-207 at the helm, losing 100 games in his first season and going 77-85 last year.

The Marlins will unveil their new skipper on Monday.
