Marlins Win Season Finale

     The Miami Marlins downed the Atlanta Braves 5-3 at loanDepot park on Sunday. It was the season finale for the Marlins this year. 
     The Marlins concluded their 34th season as a Major League Baseball franchise. The Braves will host the Philadelphia Phillies for Game 1 in the National League Wild-Card Series on Tuesday. 
     The Fish wore their teal-and-black jerseys involving Sunday home games for the last time this season. Miami had a winning record this year wearing the throwbacks colors. 
     Marlins television game analyst Tommy Hutton announced his final Major League Baseball game today prior to his retirement. His one-time broadcast booth partner Rich Waltz made an appearance as the play-by-play announcer during the telecast. 
     Atlanta(94-68) pushed ahead 1-0 in the top of the third. Mauricio Dubon smacked a solo home run to left-center field on the first pitch for his 12th homer of the year. 
     Miami(80-82) tied it up 1-1 in the fourth inning. Heriberto Hernandez blasted a solo homer to xxx field on a 1-0 count for his 25th home run of the season. 
     The Marlins poured on three runs in the bottom of the sixth and had a 4-1 lead. Esteury Ruiz singled up the middle and Hernandez scored. Two batters later, Jared Serna doubled into left field for Ruiz and Deyvison De Los Santos to score. 
     The Braves collected two runs in the top of the seventh and trailed 4-3. The frame was capped by a Dubon base hit into right field and Brewer Hicklen raced home. 
     The Fish extended their lead to 5-3 in the bottom of the seventh. Griffin Conine drilled a solo home run to right field on a 2-0 pitch for his 19th homer of the campaign.
