The Marlins are going for the series win.

VandenHurk takes the mound for the Marlins. The Incredible Hurk has pitched well since he was called up but his problem has been he crams a game worth of pitches into five innings. If he can keep from walking everyone and their dog and keep the ball in the park, he should be fine.

Aaron Cook is a very good sinker ball pitcher. However, this will be first start since returning from a big-toe injury. So may I suggest that bunting could be in order early on. Cook is hittable but is really good at working out of jams.

If you want to see this game, may I suggest heading to the park since it won't be seen on television. If you are out of market and subscribe to MLB.tv they will join the game at 7:00 p.m.

Ichthyomancy is good to go.

Best of Luck to You!
