The Marlins and the Braves will definitely have a battle on their hands in this game. The Marlins, though, are putting the better starting pitcher on the mound in this game. Sanchez has not walked as many batters nor given up as many runs. Look for Wright to come to the game and give up to many walks and hits to the Marlins who are able to play better in the game as Wright struggles. Final Score, Miami Marlins win 6-2.
