New York Mets 5 at Miami Marlins 3
MIAMI-The Mets rallied in the top of the ninth inning scoring four runs to out-slug the Marlins in this Eastern matchup. Miami's Justin Ruggiano misplayed a bases loaded single allowing the bases to clear. Josh Johnson threw eight innings of one run ball in the loss to the Marlins.
Cincinnati Reds 1 at Houston Astros 2
HOUSTON-If Brandon Phillips wasn't ejected in the eighth, this game might not have turned out in the Astros favor. Wilson Valdez, replacing Phillips, let a routine ground ball go through his legs allowing Matt Downs to score the winning run. With the bases loaded and two outs, if Valdez had fielded the ball cleanly the Reds would have had another chance to bat.

WASHINGTON D.C.-The St. Louis Cardinals battled back in the ninth to score the go ahead run beating the Nationals in the late inning drama. David Freese hit the go ahead single with one out.
