Miami's 7-1 loss to Josh Beckett and the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night was overshadowed by the announcement team president Michael Hill made in the Dodger Stadium press box during the third inning. Hill said Marlins doctor Lee Kaplan had recommended Tommy John surgery to repair a significant tear in Fernandez's right elbow. ''Getting the confirmation that we all obviously didn't want is a big blow for us, for the team and for the organization,'' manager Mike Redmond said.
