It’s not often that Marlins right-hander Eury Pérez looks out of sorts, but when he showed signs of cracking following a shaky first inning, the pitching staff and some teammates gathered down the dugout tunnel to give him words of advice.
Be aggressive and on the attack. Show conviction.
Pérez bounced back, setting career highs for strikeouts (11), pitches thrown (100) and maximum velocity (101.5 mph) in Saturday’s 5-0 loss to the Mets at loanDepot park. Over 5 1/3 innings, Pérez allowed three runs on three hits and three walks to cap his 2025 season.
