Cracked Stat Continued

As noted earlier, since the All-Star break the Marlins are 10-1 in series finales, and the win against the Nats makes them 7-5 in the first games of those series. So why aren't they leaping up the Wild Card standings? Well, in the second games of series since the All-Star break, the Fish are 2-9 - counting all of the games in-between the first and last the Marlins are 3-12.
