Miami Marlins Prepare to Face Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Los Angeles on Tuesday Night
The Miami Marlins are hopping for better results today.
With returning starter Walker Buehler taking the mound for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Miami plated two early runs before Buehler settled in and the dynamic Dodgers offense took flight, with LA doubling up Miami 6-3.
Miami’s hoping for revenge tonight, sending Edward Cabrera up to the mound against Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
