Agustin Ramirez Went 1-for-12 Against Detroit, Then Turned Around and Destroyed Atlanta With Four RBIs
The Miami Marlins needed this win badly. After getting swept by Detroit and scoring just three runs over the weekend, they came into Atlanta on Monday and absolutely took it to the Braves, winning 10-4 in the opener of their three-game series. And the breakout star was designated hitter Agustin Ramirez, who had been ice cold against the Tigers but turned it completely around at Truist Park.
Ramirez's Hot Streak Starts With a Moonshot
Ramirez was rough going into this one. He went just 1-for-12 against Detroit. But against Atlanta, he flipped the switch entirely. He finished 3-for-4 with a walk and drove in four runs, including a 420-foot three-run home run to left-center, his first of the season. He also added an RBI single on an infield grounder. That's the kind of performance you need when you're trying to snap out of a slump.

Miami's Pitching Finally Holds Up
Andrew Nardi picked up the win (1-0) after Miami's starters got knocked around early. Eury Perez was pulled after the fourth inning, giving up four runs on seven hits and two walks. Atlanta's Grant Holmes didn't survive the fourth either, lasting just 59 pitches before getting lifted. Aaron Bummer took the loss (0-1) in relief.
The Marlins struck in the fourth with three runs, then watched Atlanta tie it right back up in the bottom half. But Ramirez's three-run blast in the fifth put Miami ahead for good. Connor Norby homered in the sixth to extend the lead even further, and Ramirez came through again with another RBI. This is the kind of bounce-back performance that gets a team back on track.
