MILWAUKEE (CBSMiami/AP) – Things aren’t all bad for the Miami Marlins, at least over the past week.
With a franchise-record sixth straight losing season seemingly inevitable, the Marlins have been getting some production from Ichiro Suzuki, Adeiny Hechavarria and Cole Gillespie.
They’ll try to lead the Marlins to their first road sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers in nine years Wednesday.
Miami (49-70) has followed a 2-13 stretch by winning six of eight, scoring 5.9 runs per game in that span – 2.2 higher than its season mark.
The Marlins have totaled 15 runs in taking the first two games of this series, collecting 13 hits in Tuesday’s 9-6 victory.
