Max Williams exploded onto the scene in his Double-A debut, crushing a solo homer in the ninth to lead the Pensacola Blue Wahoos to an 8-6 extra-inning win over Columbus. The Marlins’ third-round pick, who started the season injured, is on fire with 10 homers and 26 RBIs in just 40 games — all while showing steady ascent through the minors. His power, honed at Florida State where he hit 33 homers in two seasons, is now translating into wins. Aiva Arquette and Cristian Hernandez added key hits, while Orlando Ortiz-Mayr dominated on the mound with five shutout innings. The Blue Wahoos surged to a 5.5-game division lead, closing in on the second-half title. Elsewhere, prospects like Andres Valor (57 steals, leading all of Single-A) and Logan Driscoll kept fans buzzing, even as other affiliates had ups and downs — including a wild 12-11 walk-off win by Beloit. It’s a season full of momentum, talent, and thrilling moments across the Marlins’ system.
