Pelicans to play preseason games in Melbourne against NBL’s Melbourne United and South East Melbourne Phoenix on Oct. 3 and 5.

The first people to get a look at that team will be in Australia.

Michael Snyder hit a solo home run deep to left with one out in the bottom of the ninth, allowing the Miami Marlins to come back from six runs down to tie the visiting Washington Nationals 9-9 in a spring training shootout Monday in Jupiter, Fla.

Considered business handled. The Magic steamrolled the Pelicans, 113-93, Thursday night behind a combined 61 points from star duo Paolo Banchero (34) and Franz Wagner (27) at Smoothie King Center. It’s what Orlando was supposed to do against a team that entered with just 18 wins as New Orleans was already eliminated from playoff contention.
