Game-Changing Moments and Fireworks
On July 18, Kyle Stowers delivered an unforgettable moment: a two-run walk-off home run in the 10th inning to lift the Marlins 8–7 over Kansas City. It was his second walk-off slam of the month, and Stowers went 3-for-5—extending an on-base streak to 10 plate appearances and tying a club record. (ESPN)
