Johnson struck out nine; snaps losing streak

Josh Johnson had an execlent outing that led the way to the victory versus the Atlanta Braves in front of 29.019 fans at Marlins Park.

Johnson struck out nine batters and only gave up a hit in six innings.

Johnson had to leave the game because of precautionary reasons due to a skin irritation on his right middle finger. He should be ready for his next start.

The Marlins were on the board early when Carlos Lee hit a RBI single to left, that scored Reyes in the first inning.

A inning later, Emilio Bonifacio belted his first home run of the season to left field.

The bullpen only gave up a run which was in the ninth inning.

The Marlins finally snap their five game losing streak as they defeated the Braves 2 to 1.

Next Game: Mark Buehrle will start for Miami on Tuesday as he faces Tim Hudson at Marlins Park at 7:10 PM ET.
