Starting for the Dodgers is Bobby Miller (2-4, 8.17 ERA), eager to bounce back after a challenging outing against the Cubs. The Marlins will counter with Darren McCaughan (0-0, 7.06 ERA), who faces a powerful offensive lineup. Given that both pitchers have ERAs exceeding 7.00, a high-scoring game seems likely, and our prediction leans toward a Dodgers victory.
