He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. Butch Henry earned the win for Florida. He lasted 6.2 innings, allowing 6 earned runs on 8 hits, while striking out 5. With the win, he raised his record to 8-6. Billy Wagner converted his 3rd save in 5 tries.

"It was a nice win for our side today," said Marlins manager Stephen Ginter. "Not perfect, but we'll take it."
