The Florida Marlins had another game winning home run as Hanley Ramirez went deep in the 11th inning and the Marlins defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-4 on Thursday night. That is an exciting way to begin a four game series against the Dodgers!
Ramirez took Marlins reliever Brian Falkenborg deep for the game winner. John Baker also had a solo home run in the second inning. Jorge Cantu, Josh Willingham, and Josh Johnson had the other three rbi for the team.
On the mound, Johnson tossed five innings while giving up six hits and three runs. Johnson didn’t walk any batters but he did strike out six as he got the no decision. Joe Nelson pitched two innings to get the win and Kevin Gregg notched his 18th save as he finished the Marlins off.
The Marlins will now try to go up 2-0 in the four game series as the two teams will play once again on Friday.
