Bridgewater, NJ – When Brandon Leibrandt’s contract was purchased by the Miami Marlins from the Somerset Patriots on Thursday, August 6th, the left-handed pitcher’s unique journey was inches of the dream of reaching Major League Baseball. That dream has now become a reality with the Marlins announcement on Tuesday, August 18th that Leibrandt’s contract had been selected from the team’s alternate training site. He is now a member of the Marlins’ Major League club and is set to make his MLB debut.

This announcement comes 17 days since his last appearance in a game at TD Bank Ballpark.
