The bullpen took care of the rest of the game and managed to win the game. Daniel McGrath earned his second win of the year. Juan Soto had a great game and had a key homer in the second inning of the game.

The Marlins took the last game of the series and we could not get the road sweep. It was a total bullpen loss as all of our relievers struggled and gave up 10 runs on the middle and final innings. Sandy Alcantara and dominated our offense and we only scored three runs.
