Marlins Secure Historic Home Shutout, Dominating Braves 12-0
In a monumental victory, the Miami Marlins absolutely dominated the Atlanta Braves, winning 12-0. This was a massive win, especially considering the Braves are leading the league. Max Meyer was exceptional on the mound, going six innings with six strikeouts and allowing just three hits.
The Marlins pitching staff continued the shutout, with John King, Calvin Faucher, and Lake Bachar combining for a one-hitter. This was the biggest home shutout victory in Marlins franchise history. The Braves, who have been shut out only two other times this season, gave up a season-high twelve runs, with eleven of those coming in a rough two-inning stretch.
Javier Sanoja hit a three hundred seventy-five foot grand slam in the fifth inning, his first homer of the year and the first Marlins player to hit a grand slam batting ninth since Justin Bour in 2016. Joe Mack drove in runs with a groundout, a two-run single, and a bases-loaded walk.
The Braves starter, JR Ritchie, gave up six hits and four strikeouts in his four innings of work. The game was delayed in the second inning when plate umpire Alfonso Márquez had to leave after being hit by a foul ball. Despite activating Ronald Acuña Jr. from the injured list, the Braves couldnt make up for the loss.
Looking ahead, the Marlins will send Braxton Garrett to the mound against the Braves Martin Perez in the next game of the series.
