Marlins Get Road Win, 8-2
Florida starter Kevin Appier pitched effectively against the Minnesota Twins at Metrodome. The right-hander led his team to a 8-2 win. In 8.1 innings, Appier surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 9 and walking 4. He allowed 2 runs. Florida improves to 40-21 with the win. They lead their division by 3½ games.

It could have been a different outcome for Florida, had it not been for Craig Counsell, the former first round draft pick . Counsell contributed a run-scoring walk in the top of the first inning to put Florida up, 2-0.

"Feels good to get the job done," Counsell said after the game.
