Posted August 12, 200915 yr Marlins walkoff!!! 9-8!! W: Sanches (3-1) L: Wright (2-2) 2B: C Coghlan (16), H Ramirez (33), D Uggla (19), N Johnson (18), J Baker (20) SB: H Ramirez (22), C Coghlan (6)
August 12, 200915 yr So we win bad starts by VandenHurk and Volstad to start off the series. This really is a huge confidence booster. This team has so much fight in them. Ricky Nolasco needs to go at least 7 innings tomorrow to save our bullpen, who need a rest for a change.
August 12, 200915 yr My god, the patience and hitting since Nick Johnson joined the team. Just incredible. This team is all heart, I can just feel it. Marlins all the way!
August 12, 200915 yr I love how this team never gives up. It is imperative that we get a good, deep start from Ricky tomorrow so that our bullpen gets some well deserved rest... come on Ricky, CG please!
August 12, 200915 yr Volstad had me kicking and screaming. Huge win and hopefully the Phillies lose too.
August 12, 200915 yr What a wild game. Tough call between Baker & Uggla. I'll go with Uggla for the walkoff. Even though Nunez blew the save, bullpen was huge. Calero, Meyer, Pinto, Sanches.. what can you say about these guys? Marlins are 37-25 since June 1. now won 10 of 13.
August 12, 200915 yr Did anyone else notice that wright walked the three lefties he faced, but baffled the two righties he faced? I'm surprised they didn't leave him in to face Uggla. But anyway, great way to battle back. And to stick in there even though Hermida was clearly safe in the 10th. And Porter sending him in itself was retarded. He wasn't even at third by the time that the LF got the ball.
August 12, 200915 yr So we win bad starts by VandenHurk and Volstad to start off the series. This really is a huge confidence booster. This team has so much fight in them. I don't know...I wouldn't expect much more than a 5 inning, 2 ER performance from VandenHurk. Volstad needs to get it together. Overall, the pen did well again, tonight. Nick Johnson = HUGE UPGRADE! The Rockies are losing...we could move within 2 of the wildcard, tonight.
August 12, 200915 yr Yes!!!!!! Another Amazing Win. This team is so fun to watch and has to be my favorite in all of my years. They have so much heart..especially with a struggling Volstad! Watch out Phillies
August 12, 200915 yr Excellent come from behind win, that was all heart and guts right there along with some great situational hitting. I love the Marlins haha

August 12, 200915 yr Hey guys Im an new user i found out about marlinsbaseball when i came to spain to spend the summer and i was so mad because i couldnt keep in track with the marlins but this website is great well i picked uggla as the fish of the game! What a game!

The Rockies are losing...we could move within 2 of the wildcard, tonight. VandenHurk had thrown 97 pitches and was struggling and having runners on base the entire game. I'd call that a bad start that we got lucky and the damage was limited. And also, Brian Sanches is the unsung hero of this team. I mean how many times has he come into the game and saved us lately? BTW Phillies just got the win.

As for Sanches...I have no idea how he does it...but yeah.
August 12, 200915 yr The Cubs just lost against the Phillies. Which means we're still 3.5 GB the Phils but 1 game closer in the wild card race. Win win. I follow the game on Gameday but I was still on the edge of my seat. Good on Uggla. Let's hope Nolasco dominates tomorrow. Coghlan's plate discipline is amazing lately.
August 12, 200915 yr the cubs are a mess right now...phillies had 3 hits and 4 runs and cubs had 10 hits and 3 runs. kevin gregg got the loss
August 12, 200915 yr also gotta give props to Bonifacio who was nearly the hero tonight with a pinch-hit single.
August 12, 200915 yr Huge win for us. I like the way we've played after that awful Nats series. I hope our starters begin to show more consistency, though.
August 12, 200915 yr we won but so did the phillies. the cubs are so useless and gregg's not even on our team anymore but he's still screwing us by losing games
August 12, 200915 yr Wow. I was worried when Badenhop went down about who'd we put in for long innings...Sanchez has done a fabulous job in that aspect. Rest of the bull pen put it together well as well. And again, I knew Nick Johnson would be a huge upgrade over Bonifacio, but this is ridiculous.

Yeah Tommy and Rich keep pointing out how much of a change there has been since Johnson joined the Marlins.
