Marlins Clinch Series, Extend Win Streak Over Yankees

The Miami Marlins clinched a series victory against the New York Yankees, extending their streak to six consecutive series wins and improving to just one game under .500 after being 16 games below in June. On Friday, the Marlins mounted a 13-12 comeback win, with Xavier Edwards tying the game and rookie Agustín Ramírez delivering the walk-off hit as the Yankees' new relievers struggled. Saturday saw Ramírez homer twice and Eury Pérez pitch six scoreless innings in a 2-0 shutout. The Marlins have gone 29-14 since mid-June, fueling their postseason hopes. The series drew season-high crowds, reflecting increased fan excitement. Ramírez, a former Yankees prospect, now leads NL rookies in several offensive categories and is seen as a Rookie of the Year contender.
