Marlins on Verge of First Place

With last night's game being postponed due to rain, the Marlins missed out on an opportunity to tie the Braves for first place in the NL East.

Today, they get that same opportunity passed before them. No wonder the Braves are opting to push the makeup date back to a later time; this Marlins team has its bats and the momentum to possibly take the series.

Scottie Olsen will take on Tim Hudson, the Braves ace in what looks to be an early season primetime matchup that will figure into who will be the NL East frontrunner. At least for the time being.
