In this story:
Eventually, you knew that things were going to catch up with the Miami Marlins and boy, have they ever. After a promising start early in the season, things are going South for the Marlins, who are 3-7 in their last 10 games and they have lost four straight. They enter the series final at home against the Baltimore Orioles, looking to avoid a sweep.
Clayton McCullough's team is 1-4 in their first five games on their current nine-game homestand. After Thursday night's game against Baltimore, Miami will welcome the Washington Nationals to town for a three-game series beginning on Friday night. The latest stretch has seen the Marlins fall to 9.5 games off the pace behind the Atlanta Braves in the National League East and into fourth place. If they're not careful, they could be bringing up the rear in the division behind the New York Mets, despite their rough start to the season, six weeks in.
Here is a rundown of Thursday's series finale, including how to watch, pitching matchups, and injury updates.
