MLB playoff notebook: Marlins' Sanchez no stranger to Braves
MLB: Miami Marlins at Atlanta BravesLOS ANGELES -- Miami Marlins right-hander Sixto Sanchez has not been around long, but by the end of the day Thursday, he will have a rich history against the Atlanta Braves.
The 22-year old, with the shout-out-loud name and the 100 mph fastball, is scheduled to start Thursday in a win-or-go-home National League Division Series Game 3 for the Marlins at Houston's Minute Made Park.
Sanchez, a top Marlins prospect, has only eight career outings after making his major league debut this season. Two of those starts came against the Braves, who have jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the NLDS.
