Marlins vs Yankees: Dramatic 13-12 victory with epic comeback in Miami

Marlins Achieve Epic Comeback Against the Yankees

Miami, Florida – On an unforgettable night at LoanDepot Park, the Miami Marlins staged a spectacular comeback against the New York Yankees, securing a 13-12 victory. This triumph, which marks the eighth walk-off win of the season, reinforces the team’s aspirations for the postseason. The team, backed by the confidence of the management that kept key figures like Sandy Alcántara, Edward Cabrera, and Anthony Bender, demonstrated its tenacity in front of an audience of 32,299 fans.

A Comeback with History

The Marlins found themselves down 6-0 in the fifth inning. However, a two-run homer by Javier Sanoja and an RBI single by Liam Hicks narrowed the gap. The seventh inning was key, with a grand slam by Kyle Stowers and another homer by Sanoja, tying the score. Agustín Ramírez, former Yankees prospect, drove in the go-ahead run for Miami with a single to left field, putting the score at 10-9. The excitement continued as the Yankees took a 12-10 lead in the ninth inning. But the ending was worthy of a movie: Sanoja and Jakob Marsee got on base, Xavier Edwards tied the game with a single, and Ramírez sealed the victory with a ground ball that allowed the decisive run.

We are going to keep fighting until we complete 162 games… If we achieve it, I think we will be in a good position at the end of the year.
