After dropping the first two in the home-and-home series with their in-state rivals, the Miami Marlins hope to bounce back and get back into the series. The Marlins winless drought has now reached seven straight games, despite the fact that the team has scored six runs in consecutive games.

The Marlins will hope starter Tom Koehler can keep up his impressive work as a starter thus far against the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday evening. The Rays will counter with Roberto Hernandez to sustain their success against the Marlins.

Marlins Lineup

Bold Prediction: Despite a strong start from Koehler, the Marlins will drop another ball game, as their offense cannot pick up where it left of the past couple of games. The Marlins will make the pitcher formely known as Fausto Carmona look like an ace. Marlins lose 5-2.
