\n\tThe 2025 Marlins have more wins than the infamous 2024 squad and they got there with 28 games to spare. They cooled the\u00a0streaking Mets Thursday night in a gritty 7-4 victory. Miami forfeited leads of 1-0 and 4-2 early, but a three-run seventh and rock-solid relief appearances from\u00a0Cade Gibson<\/a>, Ronny Henriquez<\/a> and Calvin Faucher<\/a> put the nail in New York’s coffin.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAll night, Miami’s offense did just enough to get on base and sustain rallies. The Fish eked out three infield hits while New York assisted their division-rival’s efforts with three errors. Each Met blunder directly led to runs to the dismay of the home crowd.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the third, a softly hit Troy Johnston<\/a> ground ball was dropped on the transfer from Pete Alonso<\/a> to pitcher Clay Holmes<\/a>. Liam Hicks<\/a>\u00a0was able to cross as Holmes scrambled to recover.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFour frames later, lightning struck twice.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMoments after Alonso took his eye off a potential double play ball, Brandon Nimmo<\/a> scuffled to field a missile off the bat of Agust\u00edn Ram\u00edrez<\/a>, opening the door for Jakob Marsee<\/a> to cross, putting Miami back in front. It was the sure-handed Nimmo’s first error of the season.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tUnqualified for a decision due to getting an early hook after only four frames, Adam Mazur<\/a> impressed in his second look as a Marlin.\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 24-year-old surrendered an immediate two runs in his first inning of work, but settled in nicely, delivering a scoreless final three. Mazur flashed an improved four-seam, as the pitch averaged 95.7 mph on the gun compared to 94.8 his first go-around in mid-June. Mazur’s heater was responsible for two of his eight whiffs, with four coming on his wipeout slider.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tWinning any of the three remaining games of the series would secure at least a split for the Marlins. That’d be significant for a slumping club that has dropped seven consecutive series dating back to August 4.\n<\/p>\n

\n\tFriday night’s second game features two arms destined to haunt opposing NL East teams’ nightmares for a decade in Eury P\u00e9rez and Jonah Tong\u2014the latter making his MLB debut. First pitch is slated for 7:10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The 2025 Marlins have more wins than the infamous 2024 squad and they got there with 28 games…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":280481,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2395],"tags":[24644,5,1816,778,58,4171,4],"class_list":{"0":"post-280480","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-miami-marlins","8":"tag-adam-mazur","9":"tag-baseball","10":"tag-marlins","11":"tag-miami","12":"tag-miami-marlins","13":"tag-miamimarlins","14":"tag-mlb"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@mlb\/115113862706257801","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280480","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=280480"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280480\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/280481"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=280480"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=280480"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/mlb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=280480"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
