Marcell Ozuna put on a show, launching a towering homer to left in the 3rd inning, giving us a 2-1 lead. Then, thanks to another strong at-bat from Eddie Rosario, we plated another run, extending our lead to 3-1.Marlins Battle Back
The Marlins weren't finished. In the 5th inning, they managed to score twice, tying the game at 3-3. Unfortunately, in the 7th inning, Jesus Sanchez smacked a double to left, driving in the go-ahead run.Missed Opportunities
We had our chances but couldn't capitalize. In the bottom of the 6th, we had runners on first and second with no outs, but a double play ended the threat. Our last hope in the 9th inning saw Eddie Rosario and Whit Merrifield come close, but we couldn't muster that game-tying hit.Final Thoughts
It was a tough pill to swallow, but we'll bounce back. Ozuna's homer was a highlight, and Olson continued to swing a hot bat. We've got the talent and heart—this was just a minor setback. Let's regroup and get ready for the next one!Chin up, Braves Country. We'll be back stronger!
