Thrilling Victory Pushes Dolphins Win Streak to 5
The Miami Dolphins saddled the Kansas City Chiefs with a loss at Dolphins Fields. The final score was 6-3. John Daniels was 2 for 3, including 1 single and 1 home run. The Miami right fielder scored 2 runs and drove in 2. Miami reliever Tony Palacios picked up the win, raising his record to 1-1. Casey Stakes was tagged with the loss. The win gives Miami a record of 5-2.

Miami got a knockout punch from Joel McCormick. The left fielder hammered a 3-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"This place was rockin'," Daniels said.
