Three solid pitching performances over the weekend by the Miami Marlins. Only one win to show for the players’ efforts. Once again, the continuity between good pitching and good hitting was lost in a three-game series with the San Francisco Giants that the visiting team dropped.
It was yet another series the franchise could have easily won if manager Don Mattingly could muster some support from the team’s starting lineup.
In reading Chris Haft’s story on MLB.com, the outings by Sandy Alcantara, Robert Dugger, and Elieser Hernandez were solid and showed more progress in the rotation for the future.
