The Marlins arrived inside Dodger Stadium on Friday fully aware of their daunting task: a three-game series against the National League’s juggernaut, the Los Angeles Dodgers. In Sunday’s finale, Walker Buehler dazzled, tossing seven masterful innings and striking out 11 Miami hitters to complete the sweep, 9-0.
Jordan Yamamoto’s seventh career start and first against the Dodgers did not go as planned. He had pitched 34 consecutive innings without allowing a home run, dating back to his debut June 12 versus St. Louis...until Max Muncy put an end to Yamamoto’s streak in the home half of the first inning.
