Eury Perez, the Miami Marlins’ 20-year-old wunderkind of a 6-8 right-handed pitcher, continues to find ways to amaze through the early start of his MLB career.
He hit another milestone in the Marlins’ 4-1 win over the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday at T-Mobile Park, a win that allowed Miami (38-31) to avoid a series sweep.
Perez, the No. 6 overall prospect in baseball according to MLB Pipeline, threw six shutout innings on Wednesday, holding Seattle (33-34) to just two hits and one walk while striking out six.
