Marlins-Orioles game rained out

Mar 12, 2010 - 5:56 PM SARASOTA, Fla.(AP) -- After Friday's game between the Florida Marlins and Baltimore Orioles was canceled because of rain, to give pitchers extra work the Marlins and Orioles scheduled a 7-inning game at Sarasota on Saturday morning.

Marlins manager Fredi Gonzalez said Sean West will start. Mark Hendrickson will start for the Orioles.

Florida traveled from Jupiter for games Friday in Sarasota and Saturday in Port Charlotte against Tampa Bay. The Orioles had been scheduled to start Jeremy Guthrie, and Florida was to start Andrew Miller.

Guthrie will pitch against the Yankees in Tampa on Saturday, and Miller and Ricky Nolasco will pitch against the Rays.

Baltimore previously added a split-squad game Sunday at Pittsburgh's minor league complex in Bradenton.
