Los Angeles Angels at Miami Marlins: Final Score & Recap

The Miami Marlins routed the Los Angeles Angels 12-3 on August 9, 2026, at loanDepot park, a result that aligned closely with the DiamondIQ model's pre-game estimate of a 66 percent home win probability, which climbed to 100 percent by the final out. Miami's offense built its advantage steadily before erupting in the fifth inning, and the pitching staff kept Angels hitters largely in check throughout.

The decisive sequence began in the bottom of the fourth, where Javier Sanoja's single off Grayson Rodriguez added 8.0 percent to Miami's win probability, and Agustín Ramírez followed with a walk off Rodriguez that added another 4.5 percent, loading pressure on an Angels pitching staff that had already absorbed a Jose Siri home run off Ryan Gusto in the top of the second — a swing that added 4.5 percent from the Angels' side. The game's single most impactful play came in the bottom of the fifth, when Griffin Conine hit a home run off Shaun Anderson that swung win probability by 11.4 percent in Miami's favor, punctuating a six-run frame that effectively ended any competitive tension.

Conine finished as the game's top performer by WPA at plus-10.5 percent with a RE24 of plus-2.6, while Sanoja posted plus-9.6 percent WPA and matched Conine's RE24 of plus-2.6, demonstrating how thoroughly Miami's middle of the lineup controlled the contest. On the pitching side, Michael Petersen led Marlins hurlers with plus-5.9 percent WPA, and Ryan Gusto contributed plus-3.6 percent for Los Angeles despite the lopsided outcome. The Angels' lone notable positive play came in the top of the first, when a Moisés Ballesteros groundout added 5.2 percent to their win probability, a modest early bright spot that the Marlins' bats quickly erased.
