Marlins Survive 9‑8 Thriller, Perez's Seven Perfect Innings

Eury Pérez threw seven perfect innings before being lifted by manager Clayton McCullough. Miami narrowly won 9‑8 over the Athletics.

Eury Pérez pitched seven perfect innings, striking out a season‑high eight and retiring all 21 batters before being lifted by manager Clayton McCullough. The 6‑ft‑8 right‑hander threw 92 pitches, his most since returning from the injured list on June 24, and finished 5‑6 on the mound.

Miami survived a furious eighth‑inning rally from the Athletics, holding on for a 9‑8 win. Heriberto Hernández hit two homers, while Leo Jiménez and All‑Star shortstop Otto López also went deep; López, who leads majors with a .346 average, drove in three runs and scored twice. akupunkturabielsko.pl
