The Miami Marlins (33-35) host the Arizona Diamondbacks (34-33) in the series finale at loanDepot park in South Florida as one of three games scheduled for a 1:10 p.m. ET first pitch to kick off Thursday’s MLB slate.
The Marlins have won the first two games of the series, and their offense has been firing on all cylinders. Miami took the opener 10-6 before shutting out Arizona 8-0 on Wednesday night. The Marlins enter Thursday on a four-game winning streak and have won seven of their last eight games.
The Diamondbacks remain one game above .500 despite playing in a tough NL West that includes the defending back-to-back World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers. Arizona is still firmly in the NL Wild Card race and will turn to veteran right-hander Merrill Kelly, who owns a 5.71 ERA, in an effort to salvage the series. Miami will counter with Tyler Phillips, who is set to make his 19th appearance of the season but just his third start as the Marlins look to complete the sweep.

Diamondbacks vs. Marlins Best Bet: Merrill Kelly Under 4.5 Strikeouts
Merrill Kelly is not enjoying his best season and has not looked like the pitcher he was in previous years. The veteran right-hander owns a career-high 5.71 ERA and allowed seven earned runs in his last start. He has also surrendered five home runs across his last two outings combined.
Kelly has never been known as a high-strikeout pitcher. He has just 37 strikeouts in 58.1 innings this season, averaging 3.7 strikeouts per start. His season high is six strikeouts in a game, and he has gone over 4.5 strikeouts only three times in 10 starts.
The Marlins are relatively disciplined at the plate despite their youth. Miami has the 13th-fewest strikeouts in MLB this season, nearly 100 fewer than the league-leading Los Angeles Angels. While Thursday’s matchup features a different starter, the Marlins have struck out just eight times combined through the first two games of this series.
