Elsewhere in the NL East this weekend:
Ex Met Mike Jacobs is expected back Monday, after missing some time due to a thumb injury. The Marlins beat the Nats earlier today 12-6. The Nats Jerome Williams gave up 10 runs, and Manny Acta pulled Ryan Church for not running out a grounder. Its only assumed Acta is using lessons learned from the book of Willie Randolph as he tries to get the young Nats team turned around. Zimmerman had a grand slam to make the game almost close, and but Uggla went long twice, Cabrera once and another from Willingham in the Marlins runfest. The Marlins are now 8-10, the Nats 6-13.
Philly beat the Reds, and Ryan Howard returned after being day to day with a strain and getting an MRI. He had a homerun as part of his welcome back party and Utley added two doubles. The team was reported to have held a players only meeting this weekend, and have now won two in a row. The two game streak included Philly pulling a triple play on the Reds yesterday. Red catcher, Ross, grounded to third allowing the force out there, followed by a relay to Utley (2nd) and Helms (1st) to make it three. The last Philly triple play was against the Mets.
