After a frustrating offensive showing on Saturday—where the Phillies managed just one hit—they'll look to reignite their bats in Sunday's game three of this four-game set in Miami.
Taking the mound for Philadelphia is Jesús Luzardo, who faces his former team for the first time since being traded. While the left-hander has had an uneven start to the season, he's coming off a gem: seven shutout innings in his last outing. That's exactly the kind of momentum the Phillies need as they try to even the series.
On the other side, the Marlins will send Chris Paddack to the hill. The right-handed journeyman is off to a rough start in his first season with Miami, sitting at 0-4 with a 6.11 ERA. For a Phillies lineup hungry to get back on track, this matchup could be just what the doctor ordered.
First pitch is set for 1:40 PM ET, with local coverage on NBCSP. The roof at loanDepot park will be closed as the teams battle under the Miami sun—or, rather, the controlled climate.
Whether you're cheering from the stands or watching from home, Sunday afternoon baseball in South Florida always delivers drama. Will Luzardo silence his old teammates, or will the Phillies' bats finally wake up? Grab your gear and get ready for what promises to be a pivotal game in this division clash.
