Arizona Diamondbacks (34-30) @ Florida Marlins (32-30) 6/10/11 Summary

Notes and thoughts:
  • On a beautiful night at Sun Life Stadium the Florida Marlins beat the Arizona DBacks by a score of 6-4.
  • Well, my score prediction was dead on. Pretty sure that will never happen again. But that's exciting.
  • The lineup was tweaked as Bonifacio was put in for Coghlan in CF. He had 2 doubles and a walk, and made a nice defensive play late in the game. Wes Helms was the only starter without a hit.
  • I really like what Edwin did tonight. I am glad Cishek got the save, I like that guy. the one thing I did not like is bringing Dunn in in the 7th.
  • Anibal gets the W, bringing him to 6-1, and Joe Saunders gets the L, bringing him to 3-6.
Key Plays:
In the 1st inning Logan Morrison homered to right:
Logan Morrison 2-run HR
In the 6th inning Mike Stanton hit a 2-run bomb, his 15th of the year:
Mike Stanton 2-run HR
John Buck followed Stanton with a HR of his own:
John Buck Solo HR
Miguel Montero hit a 2 run HR in the 7th:
Miguel Montero goes deep
Xavier Nady goes back-to-back with Montero, making the score 5-4:
Xavier Nady HR

Wrapup:
So, the Marlins get off the losing streak and bring their record to 32-30.
Phillies beat the Cubs, and as I type the Braves are hammering the Astros. So the Marlins won't gain any ground in the East or the WC, but the win should jumpstart this team. Go Fish. Preview for the Marlins-DBacks game coming up tommorrow.
