He was removed from the game with one out and after Matt McLain doubled and an Elly De La Cruz walk. Reliever Anthony Bender was unable to keep the Reds at bay and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/sports\/mlb\/cincinnati-reds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cincinnati tied<\/a> the game.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Cincinnati would score four runs in the 10th inning and hang on for the 6-3 win.<\/p>\n<p>Alcantara was credited with the two earned runs after McLain and De La Cruz scored. He only allowed three hits and struck out six. But he didn\u2019t like manager Clayton McCullough\u2019s decision to remove him from the game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So I think I deserve to be asked how I feel before taking me out of the game (at) 95 pitches and (with a) righty on deck,&#8221; Alcantara said, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlb.com\/marlins\/news\/marlins-forfeit-lead-after-removing-sandy-alcantara-in-ninth-inning\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">via MLB.com<\/a>. &#8220;But it is what it is. Just got to get ready for my next outing.

He said Bender was the best pitcher to come into the game and win it. Unfortunately, it didn\u2019t turn out that way.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think there&#8217;s a lot of decisions that go throughout the course of the game, through the course of the season, that do weigh on you, and for this one to turn and not end up in our favor certainly doesn&#8217;t feel great,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I also know to come here and [to] answer, that is certainly part of it, and I don&#8217;t feel great about how it finished for us. I think there&#8217;s a lot of decisions throughout the course of the year that do weigh on you. Us <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/sports\/mlb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">losing the game<\/a> is for me what stings the most.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Alcantara has been one of the best pitchers to come through the Marlins\u2019 organization in a while.<\/p>\n<p>He won the National League Cy Young Award in 2022. So far this season, he has a 0.74 ERA with 18 strikeouts. The two earned runs he was charged with on Tuesday were the first through three starts.<\/p>\n<p><i>The Associated Press contributed to this report.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><strong>Follow Fox News Digital\u2019s<\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FoxNewsSports_\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><i><strong> <\/strong><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FoxNewsSports_\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><strong><u>sports coverage on X<\/u><\/strong><\/i><\/a><i><strong> and subscribe to<\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><strong><u> the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter<\/u><\/strong><\/i><\/a><i><strong>.<\/strong><\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/marlins-sandy-alcantara-expresses-frustration-decision-removed-9th-inning\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/marlins-sandy-alcantara-expresses-frustration-decision-removed-9th-inning <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miami Marlins ace Sandy Alcantara was red hot on the mound against the Cincinnati Reds and was angling to become the first pitcher to throw [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-127006","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
