MIAMI — Cody Poteet figures he has been pitching to keep his job every time out, and the Miami Marlins are happy to keep giving him work. The surprising rookie threw seven scoreless innings in his third career start and retired his last 14 batters, helping Miami beat the Mets, 5-1, Sunday. Poteet also collected his first major league hit and R.B.I. on a 40-foot single during the Marlins’ five-run second inning.
