Baseball Betting Lines
07/31/2010 - San Diego, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Gaby Sanchez and Cody Ross homered to lead the Florida Marlins past the San Diego Padres, 4-2, in the opener of a three- game series.
Hanley Ramirez and Logan Morrison each drove in a run for the Marlins, who have won two in a row and four of six overall.
Chris Volstad (5-8) went five-plus frames in the start, allowing two runs on seven hits. The right-hander won for the first time since June 13 against the Rays. Leo Nunez recorded his 25th save of the season.
Adrian Gonzalez and Chase Headley had an RBI apiece for the Padres, who had won five of six coming in. Miguel Tejada went 0-for-3 with a walk in his San Diego debut. He was acquired Thursday along with cash considerations from the Baltimore Orioles in exchange for minor league right-hander Wynn Pelzer.
Wade LeBlanc (5-9) allowed four runs on five hits in a 6 1/3-inning start.
The Padres drew first blood with a run in the first. Jerry Hairston Jr. singled and stole second with two outs. Tejada walked in front of Headley's base hit. Hairston scored on the play, but Tejada was thrown out between third and home to end the inning.
Florida plated two runs in the third to go ahead. Wes Helms walked and Ronny Paulino singled. The runners advanced a base on a sacrifice bunt. Ramirez then hit a sacrifice fly. Morrison followed with an RBI single for a 2-1 lead.
Ross' solo homer in the fourth gave the Marlins a 3-1 advantage. San Diego stranded men on the corners in the home fourth.
Sanchez made it 4-1 with a solo blast in the top of the sixth. The Padres, though, got the run back in the bottom half on Gonzalez's run-scoring single.
