Sandy Alc\u00e1ntara Continues His Rise and Guides the Marlins to Victory<\/h2>\n\nDominican pitcher Sandy Alc\u00e1ntara continues to demonstrate his return to baseball’s elite. In an exciting game at loanDepot park, Alc\u00e1ntara shone on the mound, leading the Marlins to a crucial 5-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves. This triumph not only secured the series for Miami, but also marked a milestone, as the Marlins had not achieved this since September 2023.\n\nAlc\u00e1ntara, with a solid performance, pitched six innings, allowing three earned runs, with four strikeouts and two walks. His performance, based on 95 pitches, confirms his recovery. So far in June, Alc\u00e1ntara has three quality starts and has reduced his ERA to 2.74, leaving behind a doubtful start to the season, where his ERA was 8.47 in his first 11 starts.\n\n\n

I’ve learned to be more aggressive in the zone. Today I executed the sinker well, I threw it where I wanted. Confidence is key.<\/p>Sandy Alc\u00e1ntara<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nAtlanta tried to take the lead from the start, but Alc\u00e1ntara adjusted his strategy, taking advantage of his breaking pitches to keep the opposing offense off balance. His four-seam fastball has been particularly effective this month, limiting opponents to a .056 average.\n\nIn the offensive aspect, Kyle Stowers hit his 11th home run of the season, tying the score in the second inning. In the fifth, Jes\u00fas S\u00e1nchez, Otto L\u00f3pez and Dane Myers led a key three-run rally, giving Miami a lead they would maintain.\n\nAlc\u00e1ntara played a fundamental role in maintaining the lead. After allowing a run in the third inning, he retired eight consecutive batters, showing strength even when Atlanta got closer on the scoreboard in the sixth inning.\n\n\n

I knew that if I kept working, things were going to change. I am proud of how I have responded and how patient I have been.<\/p>Sandy Alc\u00e1ntara<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nWith this victory, the Marlins not only break a losing streak against their divisional rival, but also strengthen the hope of having the best Alc\u00e1ntara in the second half of the season.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
