Marlins Sweep Doubleheader From Guardians

     The Miami Marlins were victorious in both ends of a doubleheader against the Cleveland Guardians on Saturday at Progressive Field. It was the first matchup between both clubs since the Guardians changed their nickname from Indians before the 2022 season.
     Miami(12-9) won the first game of the doubleheader 6-1. Cleveland(10-11) lost the second game of the twin bill as they were edged 3-2. 
     Both franchises are best remembered meeting in the 1997 World Series. The Marlins won Game 7 at Miami in the 11th inning by the score of 3-2 when Edgar Renteria singled up the middle to score Craig Counsell. It gave the then Florida Marlins their first World Series title in franchise history.
