Molina leads Giants to four-game sweep, fifth straight win

<h3>SAN FRANCISCO 8, FLORIDA 7</h3>By Christopher Stock
PA SportsTicker Contributing Writer


MIAMI (Ticker) -- Bengie Molina continued to knock around theFlorida Marlins' pitching.


Molina had four hits and three RBI as the San Francisco Giantsdefeated the Marlins, 8-7, on Monday afternoon to complete afour-game sweep.


Three of Molina's singles were run-scoring hits, with the thirdgiving the Giants the lead in the sixth inning at 6-5 after theMarlins scored four runs in the first against Russ Ortiz.

With his latest effort, Molina improved to 10-for-19 (.526) withsix RBI in five games against Florida this season.

It was the fifth straight win for the Giants, who wrapped up anine-game road trip at 6-3 with their season high forconsecutive wins.


Despite the latest victory, San Francisco did lose Ortiz, wholeft the game in the fifth inning with a right elbow strain.Ortiz, who finished with five runs and six hits allowed infour-plus innings, just came off a two-month stint on thedisabled list with a right forearm strain on August 10.

Giants slugger Barry Bonds was not in the starting lineup forthe second straight game after hitting his 760th career home runon Saturday night.


With the score tied 5-5 in the sixth inning, Molina hit a linedrive to right field off rookie Ross Wolf (0-1) to score DaveRoberts, who led off the inning with a triple to deep centerfield.


In the eighth, San Francisco added insurance when Omar Vizquellined on RBI single to left field that plated Molina. RayDurham also scored on the play for an 8-5 lead when Floridacatcher Miguel Olivo failed to hold on a tag on a play at theplate.


Olivo made up for that error by leading off the bottom half withhis 11th home run. The Marlins closed within a run later inthe frame when Miguel Cabrera delivered a pinch-hit single withone out that scored Alfredo Amezaga, who doubled directlybefore.


Cabrera was left out of the starting lineup after showing uplate to the ballpark.


San Francisco lefthander Jack Taschner (3-1) picked up the winin relief of Ortiz, working around a hit and three walks in 11/3 innings.


Four relievers bridged the gap to Brian Wilson, who picked uphis second career save and first of the season in the ninth.

The Marlins led 4-0 in the first, but the Giants fought back andtook a 5-4 lead in the fifth on a single by Molina.

However, Hanley Ramirez walked after Ortiz left the game withthe elbow injury and tied the game at 5-5 when he stole thirdbase and Molina's throw went near Giants' dugout.


Jeremy Hermida hit a three-run homer, his 11th of the season, toright-center field, to give the Marlins an early lead.

Hermida was moved to the sixth spot in the order due toCabrera's absence from the lineup, finishing with two hits inthree at-bats. Hermida was originally in the eighth slot.

The Giants got two back in the second inning when Rich Aurilialined a double down the left field line off of Marlins starterSergio Mitre and Vizquel hit a sacrifice fly.


Molina brought the Giants within a run with an RBI single in thethird, scoring Randy Winn, who doubled off the left field wallearlier.


In the fifth, Molina tied the game with another RBI single aftera questionable foul ball call that kept the at-bat alive. Aftera single by Aurilia, Marlins pitching coach Rick Kranitz cameout to talk with Mitre. As Kranitz came off the field, he saidsomething to home plate umpire Paul Schreiber and was ejected.

Mitre was pulled after the Giants took a 5-4 lead on a single byOrtiz.


Mitre gave up five runs and 11 hits in 4 2/3 innings.

Three of Molina's singles were run-scoring hits, with the thirdgiving the Giants the lead in the sixth inning at 6-5 after theMarlins scored four runs in the first against Russ Ortiz.

"All I did was hit hard groundballs and I found holes today,"Molina said.


With his latest effort, Molina improved to 10-for-19 (.526) withsix RBI in five games against Florida this season.

"He'll sleep good tonight," said Giants manager Bruce Bochy ofhis catcher, who caught all nine innings of the game that lastedthree hours and 43 minutes. "He's such a warrior back there."

Molina has also had a strong August, hitting .322 (19-of-59)with 18 RBI in 17 games.


It was the fifth straight win for the Giants, who wrapped up anine-game road trip at 6-3 with their season high forconsecutive wins.


"It was an exhausting game," Bochy said. "Long, hot, and theypersevered. With all that we have gone through, I couldn't beprouder of these guys."


"It makes the trip a lot more tolerable," Ray Durham said."We've got a long way to go home."


Despite the latest victory, San Francisco did lose Ortiz, wholeft the game in the fifth inning with a right elbow strain.Ortiz, who finished with five runs and six hits allowed infour-plus innings, just came off a two-month stint on thedisabled list with a right forearm strain on August 10.

"It felt sore and I was just going to grind it out and then they(Bochy and pitching coach Dave Righetti) didn't want me tothrow like that," said Ortiz, who will have an MRI on Tuesdayand is doubtful for his next start.


Giants slugger Barry Bonds was not in the starting lineup forthe second straight game after hitting his 760th career home runon Saturday night.


With the score tied 5-5 in the sixth inning, Molina hit a linedrive to right field off rookie Ross Wolf (0-1) to score DaveRoberts, who led off the inning with a triple to deep centerfield.


In the eighth, San Francisco added insurance when Omar Vizquellined on RBI single to left field that plated Molina. Durhamalso scored on the play for an 8-5 lead when Florida catcherMiguel Olivo failed to hold on a tag on a play at the plate.

"Nothing went right," Marlins manager Fredi Gonzalez said. "Thisgame, a call here or there, a base hit here or there, a bloopsingle here or there and it's a different outcome. That's justthe way the game is sometimes. It's not fair sometimes."

Olivo made up for that error by leading off the bottom half withhis 11th home run. The Marlins closed within a run later inthe frame when Miguel Cabrera delivered a pinch-hit single withone out that scored Alfredo Amezaga, who doubled directlybefore.


Cabrera was left out of the starting lineup after showing uplate to the ballpark.


"It happens," Gonzalez said of the four-time All-Star thirdbaseman. "Everyone makes mistakes. He was remorseful andforgiven and we go on the road now."


San Francisco lefthander Jack Taschner (3-1) picked up the winin relief of Ortiz, working around a hit and three walks in 11/3 innings.


Four relievers bridged the gap to Brian Wilson, who picked uphis second career save and first of the season in the ninth.

"It's always good to get on top early, especially when you'vegot a guy like Sergio (Mitre) on the mound," Hermida said.

The Giants got two back in the second inning when Rich Aurilialined a double down the left field line off of Mitre and Vizquelhit a sacrifice fly.
