In a closely contested game at loanDepot park, the Miami Marlins fell short against the Milwaukee Brewers with a final score of 5-7. The Marlins now stand at 16-34 for the season, while the Brewers improved their record to 28-20.

The game was marked by intense moments and notable performances from both teams. The Marlins showcased resilience and skill, particularly in their batting lineup. They managed to secure 12 hits throughout the game but struggled to convert these opportunities into enough runs to secure victory. Despite not committing any errors on defense, which is a testament to their fielding capabilities, it wasn't enough to hold back the Brewers' offense.

The Brewers capitalized on their chances by amassing 11 hits and pushing across seven runs.
