Its Thursday, August 7 and the Marlins (56-57) are in Atlanta to begin a series against the Braves (47-66).
Eury Pérez is slated to take the mound for Miami against Carlos Carrasco for Atlanta.
The Braves' struggles continue. The Brewers swept a three-game set in Atlanta earlier this week. Last night, Jose Quintana and Milwaukee completed the sweep with a 5-4 win. Miami scratched out a 6-4 win yesterday in their series finale against Houston to avoid being swept. Xavier Edwards picked up four hits to lead the Marlins to victory and keep them on the fringe of the Wild Card chase.
