In the 10th inning on Tuesday, Andino experienced the high of delivering a walk-off home run, and shortly afterward, he caught word that his South Florida home was on the verge of being robbed.

A Miami native and a second-round pick of the Marlins in the 2002 First-Year Player Draft, Andino lives in Kendall, Fla., about a 20-minute drive south of Dolphin Stadium.

After he connected on his 10th-inning homer that lifted the Marlins to a 5-4 win over the Mets, Andino quickly left the clubhouse to head home and make sure his wife, family and home were safe.

"Nothing serious. Everything is OK," Andino said on Wednesday. "Everything is cool."

Andino's home is fine, and the incident appears to be resolved.

The 23-year-old didn't elaborate on what may have happened at his home.

Andino attended Miami Southridge High School, and he was projected to open the season in Triple-A Albuquerque. But an injury to outfielder Alejandro De Aza in the ninth inning of Saturday's final Spring Training game led to Andino being recalled on Sunday.

Andino has seen some big league playing time. He entered Tuesday's game in the 10th inning, and played third base for the first time in his professional career. With two outs in the bottom of the 10th, he smacked the decisive home run off New York's Matt Wise.

"It's like every kids' dream -- to hit the walk-off against a good team like the Mets," Andino said.

The dramatic home run sent the team into a frenzy, as Andino jumped into a pile of teammates at home plate.

Actually, while Andino was walking up to the on-deck circle with one out, Luis Gonzalez turned to Cody Ross and said: "Andino is going to end this game."

Ross was in disbelief.

"Andino had never hit a home run in the big leagues," Ross said. "After it happened, I'm looking at Gonzo."

The 40-year-old Gonzalez has certainly seen his share of walk-off moments.

Asked how many home runs he predicts for his teammates, Gonzalez quipped: "About a million. They only come out once."
