The Miami Marlins (62-70) host the Atlanta Braves (60-72) in the final game of their three-game series at loanDepot park.

Key Factors to Consider

Braves have matched the Marlins in overall record but boast stronger batting depth and better recent offensive output, as evidenced by a blowout win in game 2 of this series.
- Joey Wentz is 3-1 with a 1.23 ERA against the Marlins historically, giving Atlanta a pitching edge. The Braves have won the series 1-1 going into this game, with the last match showing an offensive flourish for Atlanta.
- No significant injury reports impacting starters for either team have been noted.
- Playing at loanDepot park, a neutral to hitter-friendly environment, supports moderate run production. Weather and conditions appear stable with no adverse impacts expected.
