Marlins Line Up With a Chance to Win Series versus the San Francisco Giants
The Miami Marlins are primed for a series win.
After a big night from Ryan Weathers and the bullpen holding the lead, Miami took down the San Francisco Giants last night to even the series at one game each.
And so Miami’s fighting in the finale today, sending Trevor Rogers to the mound to take on Keaton Winn at 12:10 PM ET.

Rogers, whose last name is “J’Daniel” (this is not a joke), is 0-2 on the year with a 4.80 ERA, but he’s improved every outing so far. Last time out, against the Atlanta Braves last weekend, he held their potent lineup to two runs on eight hits in five innings, walking one and striking out five. Only three current Giants have a hit off of him, with SS Nick Ahmed being 1-6, 2B Thairo Estrada being 1-4, and 1B Wilmer Flores being 1-3.

Winn, a 26-year-old righty, is 0-3 with a 5.06 ERA in his three starts on the season. He’s struggled to prevent baserunners so far on the year, allowing twelve hits and walking seven (plus putting another on via HBP). Only third baseman Emmanuel Rivera has a major league at-bat against him, going 1-2.
