Marlins and Jumbo Shrimp Both Suffer Extended Losing Streaks

Meanwhile, their Triple-A affiliate, the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp, have endured an even longer 12-game losing streak, the worst in the club’s recorded history (since 2005). Their last victory was on July 9. The streak began with a doubleheader sweep on July 4 and continued through series against Durham, Rochester, and Worcester, culminating in a 4-3 loss to the Red Sox on Sunday.

Key records from the Jumbo Shrimp’s slide: they went from 50-37 to 50-50 overall, with their second-half record falling from 8-6 to 8-18.
