Marlins Lineup
- SS Miguel Rojas
- LF Harold Ramírez
- 1B Garrett Cooper
- 3B Neil Walker
- 2B Starlin Castro
- LF Curtis Granderson
- CF JT Riddle
- C Bryan Holaday
- P Sandy Alcantara (3.86 ERA, 4.54 FIP, 15.9 K%, 32.0 Hard Hit% in 95.2 IP)
Notes: No Brian Anderson (elbow contusion) in the lineup after he collided with the right field fence on Tuesday. Anderson has played in 82 of the first 83 regular season games...This will be Sandy’s final appearance prior to the MLB All-Star Game, where he’ll be the lone Marlins representative. While acknowledging that he’s had some great performances in 2019, the right-hander only made the National League roster due to the “every team gets an All-Star” rule. Our latest FanPulse survey asked whether that rule should continue to exist.
How to watch/listen/follow
The game gets underway at 6:05 p.m. ET. Watch on FOX Sports Florida and via MLB.TV or listen on 940 WINZ.
