For the last 6 pitches of the game, yes.
Did you not see him dot that ****er repeatedly to the first several batters he faced? He was even doing a nice job getting it down, which he doesn't always do.
When he's way off, he leaks armside and the ball runs up and away from him. He wasn't doing that...y'know, until he was.
His command was really good until it was just gone. There's nothing to hang on Marmol for sticking with him. He was carving them up and if that's not Harper batting, that 2-2 fastball he threw and really the 3-2 slider punches him out. But Harper can see the ball as well as anyone out there and he won the AB. Shit happens when you're facing a Hall of Famer.
But then the wheels flew off.
