Braves get 8 in 8th to beat Marlins
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 26 - 07 - 2010

hit grand slam to put the Atlanta Braves ahead in an eight-run eighth inning, as they rallied past the Florida Marlins 10-5 in the National League on Saturday.
Six of the runs were unearned because of two errors by third baseman Jorge Cantu.
Nine of the first 10 batters reached base in the eighth, and the Braves scored against all three Florida pitchers.
Conrad's slam with one out put the Braves ahead 9-5. It was his fifth homer, and his third as a pinch-hitter. He hit a pinch-hit, walkoff slam to cap a seven-run ninth inning against Cincinnati on May 20. Eight runs in an inning were a season high for Atlanta and the most allowed by Florida.
Phillies 10, Rockies 2: In Philadelphia, Ryan Howard hit a bases-loaded triple and Jimmy Rollins had a two-run triple in a seven-run third inning as Philadelphia crushed Colorado.
The defeat was one of the heaviest in the career of Colorado starter Ubaldo Jimenez (15-2) who entered the game with the most wins in the majors. He lasted less than three innings, allowing six runs and six walks – both season worsts. It was the second shortest outing of his career.
Philadelphia starter Kyle Kendrick (6-4) returned from his demotion to the minors by giving up just one run in seven innings.
The Phillies have won three straight and appear to be coming out of their recent offensive struggles.
Dodgers 3, Mets 2, 13 innings: In Los Angeles, James Loney hit a walk-off homer in the 13th inning, lifting Los Angeles over New York.
Cubs 6, Cardinals 5: In Chicago, rookies Tyler Colvin and Starlin Castro homered Saturday, completing a successful week at the top of Chicago's order and helping the Cubs to a victory over St. Louis.
Reds 7, Astros 0: In Houston, Johnny Cueto pitched eight scoreless innings to guide Cincinnati to an easy win over Houston.
Giants 10, Diamondbacks 4: In Phoenix, Juan Uribe hit a grand slam as San Francisco soundly defeated Arizona.
Padres 9, Pirates 2: In Pittsburgh, Mat Latos pitched effectively over six innings despite giving up two solo home runs in his first start since July 8 as San Diego downed Pittsburgh.
Brewers 4, Nationals 3: In Milwaukee, Ryan Braun's single in the bottom of the ninth inning gave Milwaukee a win over Washington.
