Eight Venezuelans, two Dominicans, a Cuban, a Curaçaoan, a Korean, a Honduran, and a Colombian arrive in Miami. The international map that built Atlanta lands in Miami’s house.

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.
