Sandy Alcantara Throws Complete-Game Gem Wednesday
1 year agoMiami Marlins right-hander Sandy Alcantara tossed a gem in a 7-1 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday. Alcantara allowed one run on five hits over nine innings while striking out seven and walking one in the win over a tough Rays team. The veteran hurler notched 19 swinging strikes in what was the first complete game at Tropicana Field since 2018. Alcantara has struggled at times in 2023 after winning the Cy Young in 2022, posting a 4-5 record, 4.46 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and 113 strikeouts over 135 1/3 innings of work. He will look to build on Wednesday's performance in his next start, which is set to come against the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday.
