Miami took two of three from the Cardinals and heads west sitting a game under .500, with a collapsed Mets and Phillies above them in the NL East standings and a Wild Card slot in reach. Sandy Alcántara opens Friday night against a Giants team that’s been shut out four times already. The frame writes itself.
Eury Pérez threw six innings of one-run ball with seven strikeouts — zero earned runs, one walk — answering the command questions directly. Kyle Stowers doubled in his first at-bat. Javier Sanoja’s pinch two-run single broke it open. Michael Petersen got five outs. The Marlins snap a four-game losing streak.
Bryce Elder lowered his ERA to 0.77 with seven strikeouts over 5.2 innings. Ozzie Albies, Austin Riley, and Matt Olson all homered. Liam Hicks broke up the shutout with a two-run shot in the eighth, but it was too late. Miami falls to 9-10 in Atlanta and heads into the off-day carrying two straight losses.
Agustín Ramírez’s three-run home run broke a tie in the fifth, Liam Hicks drove in three, and the Marlins beat the Braves 10-4 at Truist Park to open the two-game series. Eight of Miami’s ten runs were driven in by international players. The NL East’s top two teams are also its two most internationally diverse rosters — and Miami struck first.
Heriberto Hernández tripled home two runs, but Miami’s bullpen walked ten and couldn’t hold a four-run lead in a 9-7 loss at Yankee Stadium.
Sandy Alcantara threw the first complete game shutout of the MLB season — a Maddux — as Miami routed Chicago 10–0. Liam Hicks drove in four, now leads MLB with 12 RBI.
