Baseball Betting Lines

07/04/2009 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Emilio Bonifacio went 3-for-4 with two runs scored to help the Florida Marlins take a 5-3 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates in the second game of a three-game set.

Hanley Ramirez went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run for the Marlins, who have won four of their last five games. Andrew Miller (3-4) got the win as he gave up three runs on seven hits with a walk and four strikeouts in 6 2/3 innings of work.

Garrett Jones and Andy LaRoche each hit a solo home run for the Pirates, who have dropped three of four. Zach Duke (8-7) was tagged with the loss as he gave up four runs -- three earned -- on seven hits with three walks and five strikeouts over six innings of work.

The Marlins got on the board in the first inning as Bonifacio reached base on an error by Adam LaRoche and, after Jeremy Hermida struck out, Ramirez launched a pitch over the left field wall for a 2-0 lead.

Florida plated another run in the fourth as back-to-back singles from Dan Uggla and Cody Ross was followed by a double play groundout by Ronny Paulino that plated Uggla for a 3-0 lead.

The Pirates finally got on the board in the fifth inning as Andy LaRoche led off the frame with a blast past the wall in left, his fourth home run of the season.

In the sixth, Pittsburgh made it a one-run game. Andrew McCutchen led off with a single and moved to second on Jack Wilson's sacrifice bunt. Delwyn Young then singled to center to score McCutchen and make it a 3-2 game.

In the sixth, Florida tacked on another run to make it a 4-2 game. Jorge Cantu led off with a double and walks to Ross and Brett Carroll loaded the bases. A wild pitch then allowed Cantu to score.

Pittsburgh again made it a one-run game in the seventh as Jones led off the frame with a shot over the right field wall, but Florida got the run back in the bottom of the inning on a double play groundout by Ramirez that plated Bonifacio.

The Pirates got a two-out double from Young in the eighth, but Renyel Pinto came on in relief and got Adam LaRoche to strike out.

Dan Meyer retired the Pirates in order in the ninth to pick up his second save of the season.
