MIA 3, PHI 2; De La Cruz delivers, bullpen dominates

For the first time in nearly two years, the Miami Marlins have won a series in Philadelphia, taking Wednesday’s rubber game in a 10-inning thriller.

Right-hander Edward Cabrera was under the microscopic after being betrayed by awful control in each of his previous two outings. His composure was tested immediately after allowing consecutive singles to Bryson Stott and Trea Turner in the bottom of the first inning. But he escaped that jam unscathed and put together an encouraging start overall.

On the eve of his 25th birthday, Cabrera used his curveball 32 times (third-highest total of his MLB career).
