First Inning

The opening innings saw both teams struggling to find their rhythm. The Marlins were unable to score in the first two innings, while the Rockies also remained scoreless in the first inning but managed to break through in the second inning with two runs from three hits.

Third Inning

In response, Miami's offense began to stir during the third inning. Otto Lopez contributed significantly by getting on base and eventually scoring one of his team's eight runs. This set a tone for what would become a consistent offensive effort throughout the game.

Fourth Inning

The fourth inning was pivotal for Miami as they added two more runs from three hits, putting pressure on Colorado's defense. Connor Norby played a crucial role here by maintaining his impressive batting average and contributing defensively as well.

Middle Innings

As both teams entered into middle innings, pitching became crucial. Ryan Weathers started for Miami but faced challenges early on with an ERA of 6.75 over four innings pitched. However, Calvin Faucher provided relief from the bullpen without allowing any earned runs across his appearances.
