For the first time this postseason, the Marlins have been pushed to the brink of elimination. The Braves took Game 2 of the National League Divisional Series with a 2-0 win Wednesday.
Miami got all it could’ve hoped from starter Pablo López. One of the Marlins most reliable starters all season long, Lopez went 5 strong innings, and his only two pitch mistakes resulted in solo shots from Dansby Swanson in the second and Travis d’Arnaud in the fourth.
But Miami’s bats were silenced from the beginning.
