Marlins hit 3 homers, edge D-backs for 5th straight win
Otto Lopez went 3-for-5 with a homer, Kyle Stowers homered for the second straight game and the Miami Marlins extended their season-best winning streak to five games with a 9-8 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks in Phoenix on Friday. HT Image Heriberto Hernandez homered, Stowers and Connor Norby had two hits apiece, and Lopez and Norby each scored twice. The Marlins had 13 hits, the fifth straight game with 10 more. Lopez is 15-for-32 with 10 RBIs during an eight-game hitting streak. Jake McCarthy, Geraldo Perdomo and Alek Thomas homered for the Diamondbacks, who scored three runs in the ninth inning and had runners on first and third with one out before Tyler Phillips got Tim Tawa to ground into game-ending double play. The Marlins broke a six-game series losing streak to Arizona dating to 2024 and have won 10 of 14 overall. The D-backs had won 10 of 15. Randal Grichuk singled off Phillips to open the bottom of the ninth, and Thomas reached on shortstop Lopez's fielding error before Jose Herrera single to load the bases. Phillips walked Perdomo to force in a run, making it 9-6. Ketel Marte struck out before Pavin Smith hit a two-run single to trim the deficit to one, bringing up Tawa. The D-backs overcame four-run deficits in the ninth inning twice this season, in a 5-4 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on April 12 and an 8-7 win over the San Diego Padres on June 14. Ronny Henriquez , the second of Miami's six pitchers, gave up one run in 1 1/3 innings. Marlins starter Eury Perez gave up three runs on two hits before leaving with one out in the fifth inning after reaching a season-high 93 pitches his fourth start of the season. He walked three and struck out three. Merrill Kelly permitted five runs, three earned, and five hits, with seven strikeouts and one walk in five-plus innings. He left after Stowers' homer leading off the sixth gave the Marlins a 5-4 lead. Arizona first baseman Josh Naylor was removed from the game in the seventh inning after apparently aggravating a right shoulder injury.

Pete Alonso contract sparks backlash as MLB expert reveals Mets' biggest 2025 failure
Pete Alonso contract sparks backlash as MLB expert reveals Mets' biggest 2025 failure (Image via Getty) Did the Mets drop the ball when re-signing Pete Alonso? After a tense offseason of talks, the star slugger agreed to a two-year, $54 million deal with an opt-out clause. But one expert says the team showed disrespect by not offering a long-term contract upfront. Now, with Alonso hitting .292, driving 18 homers and adding 65 RBIs by June 27, many wonder if the Mets misjudged his value . Pete Alonso and New York Mets faced 'offseason disrespect' criticism Bleacher Report's Tim Kelly named the Mets' handling of Alonso's deal one of MLB's '10 Biggest Fails' of 2025. Kelly wrote that teams needing power left first base untouched in talks with Alonso, saying it was 'egg on your face' now that he's off to a career year. Alonso hit 34 homers in 2024 with a .788 OPS, showing postseason strength, yet still didn't land a big offer during the offseason. Alonso's current numbers back up Kelly's point: as of June 27, he slashes .292 with a .933 OPS, 18 homers and 65 RBIs, the best of his career. Kelly warned the Mets that once Alonso opts out, he'd likely seek a bigger deal, leaving New York out in the cold.
