Marlins Need Alcantara to Stop Sweep | Miami Marlins News

The Marlins are clinging to playoff hope as they face a must-win against the Phillies to avoid getting swept, sending Cy Young winner Sandy Alcantara to the mound in a high-stakes showdown against Aaron Nola, who’s had a rough season but still packs heat with his knuckle curve. Miami’s lineup features Joe Mack back behind the plate and Griffine Conine at first, while the Phillies stick close to their usual setup. With just 35 games left, this one could be pivotal — and Alcantara’s got to deliver if they want to keep their season alive. First pitch: 6:05 PM ET.
