marlins-hatThe Marlins played the Nationals last night in the only other game involving NL East teams on the Monday schedule.

Ricky Nolasco struck out eight while allowing just two runs on four hits over eight innings as the Marlins rallied to beat the Nationals, 4-2. Hanley Ramirez led the offense with three hits.

Scott Olsen returned from the DL for Washington and tossed seven strong innings.

Ryan Zimmerman hit his thirteenth home run for the Nationals.

In other news…Phillies pitcher J.C. Romero may face battery charges for an incident that took place on Thursday after the team’s game against the Rays.

Meanwhile, according to MLB.com, it’s unlikely Philadelphia outfielder Raul Ibanez will be back in action for this weekend’s series against the Mets.

Don’t forget Bastardo being placed on the DL.

That’s correct…Bastardo was placed on the 15-day DL with a shoulder strain.

Hey finally some good news for the Mets. No Ibanez this weekend. Now if Utley can come down with something we won’t have to face the 2 guys that have killed us this year.
