Braves outlast Marlins, rain in FloridaBaseball Betting Lines05/28/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Martin Prado went 3-for-6 with two runs batted in and David Ross knocked in a pair, as the Atlanta Braves handled the Florida Marlins, 8-3, in the rubber match of a three-game series at Sun Life Stadium. Yunel Escobar contributed two hits, an RBI and two runs scored for the Braves, who took the last two games in the set and have now won 12 of their last 16 overall. Tim Hudson worked four innings before rain halted play and did not return to the mound after a one hour and 17 minute delay. The right-hander allowed two runs on five hits with a pair of walks and struck out a batter. Peter Moylan (2-0) earned the win for pitching a scoreless fifth inning after play resumed. Hanley Ramirez went 2-for-4 with an RBI and scored, while Jorge Cantu knocked in a run for Florida, which has dropped five of the last seven. Ricky Nolasco (4-4), like Hudson worked four frames prior to the stoppage, and yielded eight hits and three runs while fanning three without issuing a walk. Nolasco also chipped in with an RBI single. Chipper Jones' double off the left-field wall in the top of the first plated Jason Heyward, who tripled to straightaway center. In the home half, Ramirez was hit by a pitch with two outs, stole second and crossed the plate on Cantu's single to center. The Braves picked up a pair of two-out runs in the fourth to go back in front. Escobar started things with a single and came around to score on Ross' double into the left-field corner. Hudson reached on an infield single before Prado grounded a base hit through the left side for a 3-1 game. Through a steady rain in the home half, Nolasco helped his own cause with an RBI single with the bases loaded. Hudson was able to limit the damage by striking out Chris Coghlan and retiring Gaby Sanchez on a line out to center. The grounds crew put the tarp on the field prior to starting the fifth, and after the lengthy rain delay, Nolasco was pulled in favor of Jay Buente, who tossed a perfect frame in making his major league debut Buente did give up an RBI single to Prado in the sixth to make it a 4-2 game. Escobar then added a run-scoring double in the seventh off Tim Wood. Florida got a run back off Eric O'Flaherty in the home seventh on a fielder's choice groundout by Ramirez. After Cantu was hit by a pitch, Takashi Saito came in and struck out Dan Uggla and Cody Ross to end the inning. However, the Braves tacked on three more in the eighth on Eric Hinske's double-play ground ball, an RBI infield single by Melky Cabrera and bases- loaded walk to David Ross that stretched the lead to 8-3. In the bottom of the ninth, Billy Wagner surrendered a one-out triple to Ramirez, then fanned Cantu and Uggla to polish off the win. Game Notes The Marlins won 10 of the 18 matchups a year ago and are 5-3 in the previous eight contests in this series. Florida made several roster moves prior to the game. The club recalled pitchers Taylor Tankersley, Buente and veteran infielder Mike Lamb from Triple-A New Orleans, optioned pitcher Burke Badenhop to New Orleans and placed reliever Renyel Pinto on the 15-day disabled list with a left hip strain...Braves catcher Brian McCann missed the game with a strained right quadriceps muscle and is day-to-day.

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter JohnsonJUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm. MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season . ''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.'' Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain. He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday. ''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.'' Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia. Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind. With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
