Things going the Marlins way

You kind of feel that you have a momentum when you win ten of your first 11. How about two straight come from behind extra innings on the road? Things have been going the Marlins way so far in 2009.

When their usual top players are not at their best, others have come forward. Today Jeremy Hermida bailed Josh Johnson out of a bad start with six runs to the Nationals. Hermida hit dingers both in the 9th and again in the 11th.

Tomorrow is the final game of the three game series with the Nationals. With all the bullpen work
incurred by short starts and extra innings, it will be crucial that the starter can go deep
into the game. Let’s hope that Volstad can deliver.
