The Miami Marlins edged the Tampa Bay Rays 4–3 on June 6 at loanDepot park in a low-scoring affair that stayed well under the Vegas total of 1. Miami's offense generated 10 hits and 4 RBIs despite striking out 11 times and posting a modest .699 OPS, while Tampa Bay managed only 5 hits with zero home runs and a .720 OPS that proved insufficient in the loss. The Marlins' pitching staff struck out 11 batters and allowed just 5 hits across the contest, though they surrendered 3 earned runs with a 4.29 ERA; the Rays countered with an identical 11 strikeouts but gave up 10 hits and 4 earned runs at a 3.96 ERA. Miami's one defensive error didn't prove costly in the one-run outcome. The result leaves Tampa Bay searching for offensive consistency as the teams continue their series.
