LAD 8, MIA 1; Unpleasant(L)y Unsurprised

Miami, FL—Less than 16 hours following the conclusion of Saturday Night Sandy Fever in Miami with Marlins ace Sandy Alcantara avenging his continued struggles against the mighty Los Angeles Dodgers to the tune of a 1-run, 10-strikeout complete game victory, the focus shifted to another promising Miami hurler, Edward Cabrera.

Cabrera was bidding to become the first Marlins pitcher ever to have 5 consecutive scoreless starts.

Lest we forget that Mookie Betts was his first assignment, though. As if three home runs in the series' first two games weren’t enough, Betts wasted no time adding another tally to that column on Sunday, depositing Cabrera’s third pitch of the afternoon over the center field wall.
