Marlins Win Round 2
The Miami (GCL) Marlins are riding high after winning the Round 2 and eliminating the Toronto (GCL) Blue Jays by a series score of 4-1.

The final blow came tonight at Florida Auto Exchange Stadium, when Miami (GCL) secured its spot in the Round 3 with a 4-2 victory.

"It feels good to put them away because we really didn't want to let them crawl back into this series," said center fielder Steve Bishop, who was named series MVP. "A team like that, you need to bury them when you get the chance."

Bishop certainly helped his team's cause, as he hit .429 with a .478 on-base percentage in the series. He also chipped in 6 home runs, drove in 10 RBI and scored 7 runs.

The Miami (GCL) Marlins will play against the New York N (GCL) Mets in the next round. New York N (GCL) won their series against the Detroit (GCL) Tigers 4 games to 1. The Round 3 schedule will be announced after the Round 2 finishes.
