How to Watch Marlins Go for Series Win vs. Dodgers: TV Channel, Stream, Radio

The Miami Marlins are on the verge of accomplishing a feat that would've seemed impossible just a month ago.

The Miami Marlins have the chance to do something extraordinary this afternoon in Los Angeles: win a series against the two-time reigning champion Dodgers.

The Marlins (14-16) have enjoyed surprising success to start 2026, but none of the winning of the past month would surpass the pure ecstasy that beating the Dodgers (20-10) two times in three tries would bring.

What would’ve been an unfathomable feat just one month ago is so close to becoming a reality. Now all the Marlins have to do is put their best foot forward and try to bring the win home.

Of course, it won’t be easy. Heck, it wasn’t easy claiming victory in Game 2 of the series when Shohei Ohtani twirled a gem for Los Angeles, but Marlins starter Janson Junk was just a tiny bit better. Miami will require that same sort of miracle to win on Wednesday.

The Marlins will have a day off on Thursday before traveling back to Miami to start a four-game series against the flailing Philadelphia Phillies, who just fired manager Rob Thomson and replaced him with former Marlins skipper Don Mattingly.

That series is the beginning of a 10-game homestand at loanDepot Park that’ll see the Marlins face the Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals, as well as Philadelphia.

Pitching Matchup

Marlins: RHP Sandy Alcantara (3-2, 3.05 ERA) vs. Dodgers: RHP Tyler Glasnow (3-0, 2.45 ERA)

Coming into the season, the Marlins were in desperate need of a bounce-back year from Sandy Alcantara. While it is still early in the campaign, it appears that the team has gotten its wish.

Through six starts, the Dominican-born right-hander has been phenomenal. He’s thrown one perfect game, gone 8 1/3 innings in another and has just looked dominant otherwise. He leads the league in innings pitched with 41 1/3 and has struck out 27 while walking just 13.

Last time out, Alcantara was able to put up another good outing against the San Francisco Giants, throwing six innings of three-run ball en route to a 9-4 victory in the Bay. One thing that was nice about the performance was how well he limited free passes.

On April 18 versus the Milwaukee Brewers, Alcantara walked a whopping six batters — the most he’d given up in a single game so far this season. He was able to curb that immediately against San Francisco as he allowed just one walk throughout the entire outing.

Opposite Alcantara will be another stout right-hander in the form of Tyler Glasnow. While Glasnow’s success isn’t necessarily as pertinent to the Dodgers winning as much as Alcantara’s is to the Marlins, he was still one of the lynchpins of the starting rotation heading into the season.

Through five starts, he’s arguably been one of the most potent pitchers in all of baseball. His fantastic strikeout-to-walk ratio of 38/7 is perhaps one of the most impressive statistics on his ledger, though his lack of home runs allowed (2) is probably even more noteworthy.

Just like they did against Shohei Ohtani last night, the Marlins will have their work cut out for them on the offensive side, to say the least.
