The Miami Marlins defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates 4–2 on June 14 at PNC Park in a matchup that fell short of the Vegas total of 7.5 runs. Miami's offense proved decisive despite modest overall numbers, with two home runs and four RBIs driving the visitor's advantage. The Marlins' pitching staff was equally effective, allowing just eight hits and two earned runs while striking out 12 Pirates batters and posting a 4.07 ERA. Pittsburgh managed only eight hits and a single home run in the loss, with their 12 strikeouts and .737 OPS reflecting an offense that couldn't capitalize on limited opportunities. The Pirates' pitching surrendered nine hits and four earned runs, posting a 4.22 ERA that proved costly in a low-scoring affair. Both teams displayed identical walk and strikeout totals (three and 12, respectively), but Miami's ability to convert two long balls into runs made the difference in this under-the-total contest. The Marlins' pitching dominance and power advantage suggest they may maintain momentum in the series as Pittsburgh searches for offensive consistency.
