Jose Fernandez Solid In Second Rehab Start
- Updated: June 13, 2015

Miami Marlins ace Jose Fernandez made his second rehab appearance on Friday night for the Single- A Jupiter Hammerheads, and unlike his first appearance looked solid through five innings of work.
Allowing just two hits on sixty-five pitches, walking just one batter and striking out four, Fernandez looked more like himself in this outing after having a rocky first rehab appearance where he allowed eight hits and five runs, striking out two in just three innings on the mound.
After having a phenomenal 2013 rookie season, Fernandez pitched in just eight games with the Marlins in 2014 before suffering a season ending elbow injury which led him to undergo Tommy John Surgery.
The 2013 NL Rookie of the Year will continue his rehab stint through the minors with a return to Marlins Park in the near future.
His return will be a welcomed addition to a struggling Marlins team that shows pockets of hope every once in a while and perhaps he could be their missing piece.
The Hammerheads ended up falling to the Charlotte Stone Crabs 1-0 after ten innings.
