Chisholm homers and the surprising Miami Marlins grab an NL wild-card spot with 7-3 win over Pirates
The Miami Marlins' improbable September push will carry into October. Jazz Chisholm hit his 19th home run, Josh Bell delivered a late two-run double and the Marlins clinched the fourth playoff berth in franchise history with a 7-3 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday night. Miami locked down one of the two remaining National League wild-card spots behind Chisholm's drive, a dash of small ball and another lockdown performance by a bullpen that has carried a sizable share of the load over the last month.
