Bazzana's Breakthrough: Two-Run Single, First Steal

0:00It's May 2nd. Welcome in. This is MLB News Today, where the game meets AI. I'm Cory with the story. Marlon's pitchers straight dominated the Philly Saturday, shutting them out for nothing at Lone Depot Park. Max Meyer, their righty starter, threw a career high 7 innings, giving up just one hit and no runs on 83 pitches. He fans 7, walked 1, and the bullpen sealed the 1 hitter by retiring the last 6 batter's clean. Mark's Miami's first 1 hitter since May 18th, 2019, against the Metz. Meyer faced just one guy over the minimum, showing why he's been the rotation's top dog and strikeout rate at 25% and holding opponents. To a 205 average, threw 6 starts. Myers had a rough ride with injuries. Tommy John in 22, recovery last year, showed her issues this season and hip surgery in the off season. Metz kept his workload light, with a bigly high of 64 and 2 thirds innings in a season. Now he's chasing a healthy year to lock in as a full-time starter.

1:03Miami jumped ahead early with three straight singles in the third, then loaded the bases for walks by Agustín Ramirez and Conor Norby that played it too, runs. Xavier Edwards crushed a solo homer in the fifth off a 96.1 mile per hour fastball, and Otto Lopez added an RBI single in the sixth. Meyer stays healthy, and this could be his breakout. Marlin's fans are buzzing about that potential rotation anchor holding it down all season.
