Bee careful with these Marlins

A queen bee and its workers couldn’t help the Padres to avoid losing the series against the Marlins.

The Miami Marlins defeated the San Diego Padres 9-3 to win the weekend series at Petco Park.

Now the Marlins have won four of their last five series to improve to a 21-36 record.

Miami is 11-5 in their last 16 games, and this team is starting to show what they can do when everything goes their way.

The big hits are coming, and a lot of crazy things are happening.

In fact, not even the bees can stop these Marlins…

Sunday’s game was delayed by an attack of bees in the bottom of the third inning, right after Garrett Cooper had given the Marlins a 3-0 lead with his fourth homer of the season.

Lots of Bees, Runs and Wins

There are too many good things happening at the same time. Cooper is finally showing why he’s been given so many opportunities, Alfaro is hitting the ball and bringing people home, and Trevor Richards is finally winning games.

The Marlins are finally giving Richards some run support, and his record of 3-5 is more accurate to what he have seen this year from him.

His 3.53 ERA is the second best among Marlins starters this year.

Harold Ramírez, by the way, is the hottest hitter of the team (or in the majors) since he got the callup.

Miami is going through what is probably the best moment they’re going to have this year, so enjoy it while it lasts.

On Tuesday they will start a three-game series against the Christian Yelich Brewers, and then they will be back to Marlins Park to face the Atlanta Braves during the weekend.

Bee careful with the Marlins. They’re hot right now…

 

You can follow the Marlins listening to Swings and Mishes or Cinco Razones Podcast. You pick: English or Spanish, preferably you’ll listen to both…
