April 17, 20224 yr Marlins win the series! First series win of the year. Elieser with six strong innings, just gave up two hard hit balls all game. Jazz drives in three with a triple, double, and sac fly. Jeezy with three hits and a pair of RBI. DLC gets two more hits in a start. Everyone except Payton Henry had a hit, and Henry reached base / scored a run with a HBP and drove in a run with a groundout. Good stuff! Luzardo vs the Cardinals on Tuesday.
April 17, 20224 yr Never doubted them. And Jesus Sanchez > Bryan Reynolds, never wanted that Reynolds guy anyways.

April 17, 20224 yr I have no doubt they can have nights like this where everything clicks. My concern has always been that the lineup is prone to A LOT of streakiness. Either way, I’m definitely glad to see the lineup come out swinging and putting runs on the board!

April 18, 20224 yr Author I think the best part about the three wins in this series was that, of the combined 22 runs in those three games, only one came from a homer. Obviously we had 3 that came from homers in the loss Saturday, but the 22 runs in the 3 wins being almost entirely from just stringing good at bats and swings together is very promising.

Home runs are great and all but I prefer them after they've strung a few hits together and gotten a run or two in already. Getting guys on base changes how even a routine batted ball gets played and creates more opportunity for guys to get on and/or score. Plus, this park is WAAAAAY more conducive to an offense that plays the lines and gaps.
