The match between the Miami Marlins vs Pittsburgh Pirates will take at PNC Park on Saturday, July 23 at 7:05 PM ET (Sunday, July 24 at 4:35 AM IST).
At 7:05 PM ET on Saturday, the matchup is of Miami Marlins (44-49) vs Pittsburgh Pirates (39-55) in the second game of a three-game series. Yesterday, the Marlins defeated the Pirates 8-1, with Avisail Garcia leading the offence and Braxton Garrett earning the victory (6 IP, 1 R, 2 H, 7 K) (going 2-for-4 with a home run and an RBI). The Pirates’ Zach Thompson (5.1 IP, 7 R, 9 H, 2 K) was charged with the defeat.
In the second game of a three-game series, the Miami Marlins (44-49) will visit the Pittsburgh Pirates (39-55). On Friday, the Marlins won the first game 8-1. The season-series currently had the Marlins up 3-2. If the Marlins still have any postseason optimism, it is dwindling swiftly. On Thursday, the Marlins lost to the Texas Rangers 8-0 to begin the second half of the season.
They were six games back of the last wild-card place as of Friday and were ninth in the NL. Miami defeated the Pirates on Friday to end its four-game losing run, but if they want to maintain their lead for a possible wild card, they must be able to maintain that momentum and win again on Saturday. Miami ranks first with 76 stolen bases, 19th with 90 home runs, and 24th with four runs per game averaged. Miami is now struggling with Jazz Chisholm Jr.’s injury (14 HR, 45 RBI, 12 SB).
