Marlins Stay Just Above .500 With Split Against Braves

by @ 3:27 am. Filed under 2007 Marlins

A three game series became a two game series when the Braves and Marlins had a game rained out on Saturday.  It’s too bad because the Marlins had a nice game on Friday to build from.  Dontrelle Willis got it done on the mound and the hitters rang up eleven runs in an 11-6 win.  Cody Ross went two for four with two runs and two RBIs and five different Marlins drove in two runs.  Willis improved to 3-0 and he gave up three runs on eight hits and one walk with five strikeouts in seven innings of work.

Satursday’s game was postponed and then Scott Olsen got shelled in the yesterday’s series finale.  He gave up five runs on six hits and three walks with two strikeouts in 2 2/3 innings.  Alfredo Amezaga drove in two runs in the 8-4 loss.

The Marlins sit right in the middle of the NL East mix.  They’re two games back of the Braves but they have a nice cushion between themselves and the fourt place Phillies.  Next up is a short trip to Houston for a two game series.  Anibal Sanchez will throw against Wandy Rodriguez in the opener.
