Miami Marlins unable to overcome early deficit, suffer Game 1 defeat against Philadelphia Phillies
The Miami Marlins face the possibility of their magical season ending after losing Game 1 of the wild card series against the Philadelphia Phillies. They must now win back-to-back games to advance, a difficult task as no road team has won a wild card series after losing Game 1 in the best-of-3 format. However, the Marlins have defied the odds all year and will need to improve their offensive approach against the Phillies' Game 2 starter to have a chance.
