Marlins Rally for Sixth Walk-Off Win Over Cubs 8-7

The Miami Marlins defeated the Chicago Cubs 8-7 in a dramatic game highlighted by Jesús Sánchez, who hit a leadoff home run and a game-ending two-run triple to secure the walk-off victory. Rookie catcher Agustín Ramírez also contributed with a first-inning homer for the Marlins. Despite the Cubs taking a 7-6 lead after a four-run sixth inning, including a key RBI double from newly recalled Matt Shaw and a five-RBI performance from Miguel Amaya, the Marlins rallied late. Cubs starter Ben Brown struggled after retiring 12 straight batters early, giving up six runs in 4 2/3 innings, while reliever Daniel Palencia blew the save in the ninth inning. The win marked the Marlins' sixth walk-off victory of the season, underscoring their resilience. The Cubs, despite strong individual performances, were unable to hold their lead in the final inning, continuing their recent pattern of late-game difficulties.
