After the bats woke up in St. Louis on Tuesday in a 7-4 over the Cardinals, the offense exploded on Wednesday night as the Marlins topped the Cardinals 11-3. It was the best offensive night of the season for the Fish as they recorded 11 runs, 17 hits, and 3 home runs. They now look to sweep the Red Birds in Busch Stadium today at 1:15. That is just a beautiful sentence to type.
Wei-Yin Chen and Jack Flaherty were the starters last night and they kept the game scoreless through three innings. The Marlins struck first with a Starlin Castro lead-off single.
