Grapefruit Season Starts With Tie

February 27, 2008 by Larry Walansky · Comments Off 

The Marlins took on the Washington Nationals today in the first game of the 2008 Grapefruit League season.   The game ended in a 3-3 tie.   Scott Olsen got the start for the Marlins while Matt Chico countered for the Nationals.   Many lineup regulars saw action for the Marlins.  Olsen lasted 2 innings surrendering two hits while striking out one and walking none.   The Marlins fell behind 2-1 in the 6th inning before Mike Jacobs delivered a go-ahead two run inning in the bottom half of the inning.   The fish would hold the 3-2 lead until the 9th when Marcus Gwyn ran into some trouble and surrendered the tying run.    The Marlins failed to put across a run in the bottom half of the 9th to clinch the tie.
