"Marlins' Jesús Sánchez denies Mariners' Eugenio Suárez game-tying grand slam in 4-1 victory"

Marlins right fielder Jesús Sánchez made the catch of his life during Wednesday night’s 4-1 victory over the Mariners at T-Mobile Park, robbing Eugenio Suárez of a game-tying grand slam in the ninth inning. According to Statcast, it would’ve been a homer in 11 of 30 Major League ballparks. Sánchez knew the importance of the moment while playing no-doubles defense. Miami had dropped the first two games of the series, being outscored 17-4.

"Marlins Roster Battles: Gurriel, Sanchez, and Cooper's Future"

The Miami Marlins are considering only breaking camp with one of Yuli Gurriel or Jose Iglesias, who recently signed minor league contracts. Gurriel is expected to back up Garrett Cooper at first base or join in at least a timeshare, while Iglesias was signed to provide further depth at shortstop. The Marlins may opt to use utilityman Jon Berti at shortstop against left-handed pitching while Wendle faced righties, which might be a cleaner situation than including Iglesias on the roster. The club’s decision on Gurriel or Iglesias is also influenced by the fact that both Jesus Sanchez and Bryan De La Cruz now seem like good bets to make the Opening Day roster.
