Miami Marlins Pitching Gem: Sandy Alcantara’s Second Shutout

Sandy Alcantara was solid from start to end in front of 10,934 at Marlins Park, collecting eight strikeouts and surrendering four walks and two hits. The win sets Alcantara’s record at 5-12 for the Miami Marlins this year, with a 4.04 ERA.

A day after the Miami Marlins bullpen let down a solid start from Caleb Smith, the starter of record didn’t give them a chance to mess it up. Alcantara put 74-of-102 over the plate, including 27-of-32 first-pitch strikes for a GameScore of 85. I spoke at length about Alcantara’s season here on Friday.
