Marlins lose SS Ramirez to disclocated shoulder

<h3>FLORIDA 9, CINCINNATI 3</h3>MIAMI (Ticker) -- Dan Uggla's big blow was nothing compared tothe blow the Florida Marlins had to endure.


Uggla's two-run homer in the bottom of the seventh inningovershadowed an injury to shortstop Hanley Ramirez in theMarlins' 9-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.

The reigning National League Rookie of the Year, Ramirezpartially dislocated his left shoulder on a swing in the firstinning.


With an 0-1 count, Ramirez swung and missed at a breaking ballfrom Bronson Arroyo. He immediately grabbed for his shoulder,wincing in obvious pain while being helped to the dugout.

Losing Ramirez for an extended period of time would be adevastating blow to the Marlins (48-51), who entered the day 71/2 games behind the New York Mets in the National League EastDivision. Ramirez is batting a team-leading.336 with 16 homers,46 RBI and 27 stolen bases.


Taking some sting off Ramirez's injury, the Marlins scored threetimes in the seventh inning to snap a 2-2 tie.


Cody Ross drew a leadoff walk in the seventh and Uggla followedby depositing an 0-1 pitch from Arroyo (4-11) over the leftfield wall for his 19th homer and a 4-2 lead. Josh Willinghamdelivered a run-scoring single later in the frame.

The Marlins scored four more times in the eighth to break openthe game. Uggla, who had four hits, stroke an RBI double in theuprising that also featured a two-run single by Miguel Cabreraand a run-scoring base hit from pinch hitter Jason Wood.

Willingham also had four hits for the Marlins, who scored 35runs in taking three of four games from the Reds in the series.

Renyel Pinto (2-3) picked up the win, working a scoreless inningin relief of starter Rick Vanden Hurk.


Vanden Hurk went six innings, allowing two runs and and sevenhits. He walked two and struck out three.


Jeff Keppinger, who had four hits, belted a two-run homer in thefirst, giving Cincinnati a 2-0 lead.


Mike Jacobs hit his seventh homer, a two-run shot off Arroyo inthe fifth, to tie the game at 2-2.


Arroyo departed after allowing four runs and eight hits insix-plus innings. The righthander walked four and struck outsix.


Adam Dunn contributed an RBI double in the ninth for the Reds,who completed a 5-6 road trip.

Marlins lose SS Ramirez to disclocated shoulder

<h3>FLORIDA 9, CINCINNATI 3</h3>MIAMI (Ticker) -- Dan Ugglan delivered a big blow. TheFlorida Marlins looked to have avoided a major blow.

Uggla's two-run homer in the bottom of the seventh inningovershadowed an injury to shortstop Hanley Ramirez in theMarlins' 9-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.

The reigning National League Rookie of the Year, Ramirezpartially dislocated his left shoulder on a swing in the firstinning.


With an 0-1 count, Ramirez swung and missed at a breaking ballfrom Bronson Arroyo. He immediately grabbed for his shoulder,wincing in obvious pain while being helped to the dugout.

Losing Ramirez for an extended period of time would be adevastating blow to the Marlins (48-51), who entered the day 71/2 games behind the New York Mets in the National League EastDivision. Ramirez is batting a team-leading.336 with 16 homers,46 RBI and 27 stolen bases.


However, Marlins mananager Fredi Gonzalez said Ramirez's injurydoesn't appear to be serious.


"The trainer says we're going to go a day or two," Gonzalezsaid. "There's nothing alarming right now. Hopefully, he'll beready Tuesday or Wednesday."


Taking some sting off Ramirez's injury, the Marlins scored threetimes in the seventh inning to snap a 2-2 tie.


Cody Ross drew a leadoff walk in the seventh and Uggla followedby depositing an 0-1 pitch from Arroyo (4-11) over the leftfield wall for his 19th homer and a 4-2 lead. Josh Willinghamdelivered a run-scoring single later in the frame.

The Marlins scored four more times in the eighth to break openthe game. Uggla, who had four hits, stroke an RBI double in theuprising that also featured a two-run single by Miguel Cabreraand a run-scoring base hit from pinch hitter Jason Wood.

Uggla is 12-for-23 in five games since being benched for acontest. He said the rest was helpful.


"Yeah, I definitely think I needed that mental break," he said."Sometimes you keep digging yourself deeper.You need to be ableto take a step back and be able to relax and not press and thinkabout it."


Willingham also had four hits for the Marlins, who scored 35runs in taking three of four games from the Reds in the series.

"It just goes to show what our offense is capable of wheneverybody gets hot at once," said Marlins first baseman MikeJacobs, who homered in the fifth.


Renyel Pinto (2-3) picked up the win, working a scoreless inningin relief of starter Rick Vanden Hurk.


Vanden Hurk went six innings, allowing two runs and and sevenhits. He walked two and struck out three.


"They were sitting on a lot of fastballs," Vanden Hurk said."That happened in the first inning, so I started mixing it up.As the game went on I started feeling better and getting mypitches where I wanted."


Jeff Keppinger, who had four hits, belted a two-run homer in thefirst, giving Cincinnati a 2-0 lead.


"We're here to win. It's great to have a good day but I'll take0-for-6 if we win the ballgame," Keppinger said.


Jacobs hit his seventh homer, a two-run shot off Arroyo in thefifth, to tie the game at 2-2.


Arroyo departed after allowing four runs and eight hits insix-plus innings. The righthander walked four and struck outsix.


Adam Dunn contributed an RBI double in the ninth for the Reds,who completed a 5-6 road trip.


"I've never seen so many missed opportunities in the first fourinnings," Reds manager Pete Mackanin said. "We had theirpitcher on the ropes and just couldn't get it done. We hadplenty of chances."
