For just the third time in their 28-year existence, the Miami Marlins are heading to the postseason.
The Marlins clinched a playoff spot on Friday by beating the Yankees, 5-4, in 10 innings. Miami got a strong start by Sandy Alcantara but couldn't protect its lead in the eighth inning. The Marlins took the lead in the 10th on a sacrifice fly by Jesus Aguilar, then escaped a bases-loaded jam in the bottom of the 10th when DJ LeMahieu hit into a double play.
The win pushed the Marlins' record to 30-28, quite a turnaround after the team lost 105 games in 2019.
