Miami will send right-hander Jordan Yamamoto to the mound for his second start of the year. He is 0-0 with a 9.00 ERA in 2020. Miami will play Toronto four more times this season in a pair of two-game sets. Toronto will head to Miami on September 1.
• Miami has not won a game on the road against Toronto since 2009. The Marlins were swept in 2015. However, the Marlins are 10-6 all-time on the road against the Blue Jays and have won four out of five series. Miami is hoping for a series split tonight.
• Miami set a new club record with a 5-0 start to August before the loss on Saturday. With a win today, the Marlins can start August 6-3, a feat the club accomplished in 1997 and bested in 1995 and 2000. The 1995 Marlins started 4-2 and won six straight to get to 10-2. The 1995 Marlins began August 7-2.
LAST NIGHT Miami dropped its third straight game, falling 5-4 in 10 innings to the Blue Jays in Buffalo.

Elieser Hernandez worked 5.1 innings allowing four hits and three earned runs, striking out five. He kept the Blue Jays off the board until the sixth inning.

• Houston has also had eight players make their MLB debuts in its first eight games, but According to Elias Sports Bureau before 2020 no team since the 1955 Washington Senators had eight players make their MLB debuts in the first eight games of a season.
A SPRINT AND AN OPPORTUNITY With a 60-game season, Miami is in a unique position to compete for an NL East title. This is the latest (August 12) the Marlins have held a share of first place in their division. Before this season, the Marlins had never spent a day in first place after June 27 in any season in franchise history. The 2004 Marlins were in first place with a 40-35 record, but finished the season in third in the NL East at 83-79. Last season, Miami was 39-63, in fifth place in the division and 21.5 games out of first place with 60 games remaining. The 2016 Marlins had the best 102-game start to a season with a 55-47 record, good for second place, five game back of first. They finished the season 79-82 and in third.
• Miami has held a share of first place for every day of the 2020 season so far.
