Power-swinging Marlins resume series with Padres
Baseball Betting Lines
07/31/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Even a trip to spacious Petco Park couldn't derail the
Marlins' power train. Florida seeks a sixth straight victory at the Padres'
home park as it continues a three-game set tonight with San Diego.
The Marlins got home runs from Gaby Sanchez and Cody Ross in last night's 4-2
victory, giving them 10 long balls in their last five games. Hanley Ramirez
and Logan Morrison also drove in a run each as Florida has now won two
straight, four of six and 10 of its last 14 overall.
"They're making adjustments," Marlins manager Edwin Rodriguez said of the
recent homer surge. "They are staying back more. They're not swinging at bad
pitches. I think that's the key. They are not swinging at bad pitches. Their
strike zone is smaller. They're getting ahead more in the count."
Chris Volstad benefited from the home runs, yielding two runs over five-plus
innings to get his first victory since June 13.
Florida also spoiled the debut of Miguel Tejada, who went 0-for-3 with a walk
in his first game with the Padres since being acquired from Baltimore on
Thursday.
"I don't want to put pressure on myself," Tejada said. "I just want to play
the same game I've always played. I do whatever I can do to help the team."
Adrian Gonzalez and Chase Headley had an RBI apiece for the Padres, who had
won five of six coming in and saw their lead over the second-place Giants fall
to 2 1/2 games in the National League West.
Yorvit Torrealba went 2-for-3 to extend his hitting streak to 13 games and
Wade LeBlanc allowed four runs on five hits in a 6 1/3-inning start to suffer
the loss.
San Diego had a five-game series winning streak halted, a run that included a
three-game sweep in Florida from June 25-27. The Padres have now lost five in
a row at home to the Marlins, who haven't lost at Petco Park since July 8,
2008.
The Marlins hope to continue their power run tonight and help Ricky Nolasco
earn a third straight winning start.
The right-hander is coming off Monday's win over the Giants as he pitched 6
1/3 innings and allowed a run on four hits with a walk and seven strikeouts.
He has a 3.40 earned run average in his last seven starts with 57 strikeouts,
and is 11-7 with a 4.35 ERA on the season.
Nolasco is an excellent 7-2 with a 3.93 in 11 road starts this season. The 27-
year-old is also 2-2 with a 3.94 ERA lifetime versus San Diego.
Kevin Correia has won back-to-back starts after going 0-2 in his previous
seven and will look to improve on his 7-6 mark and 5.09 ERA this season.
The 29-year-old righty bested Pittsburgh last Friday, yielding three runs --
two earned -- on six hits and three walks over six innings.
Correia recorded a win over the Marlins on April 28 even though he gave up
four runs in five innings of work. He is 2-2 versus them lifetime in 12 games
(five starts) with a 6.94 ERA.
