Eury Pérez nearly threw a perfect game for the Marlins, retiring every batter in seven innings on just 92 pitches—until the team pulled him for fear of overworking the 23-year-old, who’s battled injuries including Tommy John. Former catcher A.J. Pierzynski blasted the decision as a missed historic moment, while manager Clayton McCullough stood by the move, citing arm protection as non-negotiable. The Marlins still won 9-8, sweeping the series and staying alive in the wild card race, with plans to slowly ramp up Pérez’s workload before the All-Star break.

The Marlins are on fire, riding a 23-8 surge since June 1 to sit just half a game out of the NL wild card — and it’s a total team effort. Starting pitchers, the bullpen, and hitters are all clicking, with every player — from starters to bench warmers — stepping up and feeding off the same electric energy. The chemistry is undeniable, and while the All-Star break looms as a potential disruptor, the momentum is real. Behind overlooked gems like Otto Lopez and Liam Hicks, plus homegrown talent like Max Meyer and Joe Mack, Miami’s got the pieces to keep this run alive — if they can stay sharp after the break.
