Marlins look to continue home success vs. Braves

Apr 24, 2007 - 2:06 PM Atlanta (12-7) at Florida (9-10) 7:05 pm EDT

MIAMI (Ticker) -- The Florida Marlins look to continue their home success against the Atlanta Braves when the teams face off on Tuesday.

The Marlins have won 11 of the last 15 meetings here, including an 8-7 victory on Monday. Dontrelle Willis was not especially sharp but still managed to beat the Braves for the fourth consecutive time. He allowed five runs and eight hits in 6 2/3 innings, striking out three and walking three. He also got two hits, including a triple.

Jeff Francoeur went 4-for-5 and drove in four runs for Atlanta.

Florida rookie Rick Vanden Hurk (0-1, 9.00 ERA) looks to have a better outing after yielding eight runs in four frames in the Marlins' 11-3 loss to the New York Mets last Thursday.

The righthander had never pitched above Class A before being called up to replace injured starter Ricky Nolasco.

Vanden Hurk will be opposed by former Marlin Mark Redman (0-3, 8.62), who was signed in March to solidify the back end of the rotation. The lefthander, who was an All-Star with Kansas City last season, will need to fill the spot left open with the season-ending injury to Mike Hampton.
