The Palms went out the way they came into the season, with a win. Jaspero Gonzalez provided the final two RBI of the season, with a 7th inning, go ahead single. Martin Prado scored the last run, while an inning later, Ayoz Sadan had the last hit, perhaps his last in a Miami uniform. Troy Munoz earned the win to finish above .500 for the season, despite some shaky starts. The Palms finished 6 games below .500 and 24 games out of first place, but there is certainly room for optimism next season!

There were 3 blown saves in this game, showing just how topsy turvy things were. The Palms saw Frank Sohn hit home run number 30, putting the team ahead in the 10th, to no avail.

The Palms struggled early, and Ivan Fernandez had a tough time early, and allowed 6 runs in 6 innings. In the top of the 7th, however, the Palms batted around and went ahead when Jose Molina hit a grand slam to go ahead and win the first game of their last series of the season.

With as bad as his season began, Dave Balierough's second half, including tonight's complete game shut out in Baltimore has been a revelation. Hard to believe though it may be, with his outing tonight, he brought his season ERA to under 5 to end the season. Ryan Henning, a future free agent, increased his market value and hit another home run, a two run blast in the 7th.

Frank Sohn went into the game with 98 runs batted in, looking to become the first Palm to ever reach the 100 plateau. With Martin Prado on first, Sohn took care of both RBI in one shot, with a game tying two run blast, driving himself in for RBI 100. In the 9th, with the Palms down 1, Sohn was at the plate again, driving in RBI 101,102 and 103 with his game running 29th home run of the season. Somewhat under the radar, he has overtaken the lead in home runs now, as well, with Jaspero Gonzalez in a protracted home run drought.

Miami has played their last home game for the season. While home is typically the place many teams salve their wounds, this was not the case for Miami this season. At home, they were 35-45. The biggest issues were two homestands early in the season, in which they went 3-8 early and 2-7 just before the All-Star Break. Had they even been .500 in those homestands, they would have been .500 for the season at Palms Park.

The Palms got ahead of the Orioles early in the first game of their final road trip of the season, scoring 5 runs in the first inning, including three on a Ryan Henning home run. Troy Munoz couldn't hold his lead and Dennis Sarfate eventually blew it on a 2 run Mark Reynolds single.

The culprit for today's loss was a horrendous 7th inning from Dennis Sarfate who allowed 5 runs without retiring a batter. The team's last home game saw BJ Upton as the star: he hit a home run and drove in three, but the last run of the season at Palms Park was a Frank Sohn homer.

The Palms couldn't get anything going on offense against James Shields. It would have helped Ivan Fernandez who had a solid outing until he began to unravel in the 8th.

The Palms came back twice in this one, first with a two run homer off the bat of Ayoz Sadan, then a two run 8th, which tied it at 4. The Palms took care of things with two outs in the 8th, and then walked off with a Martin Prado double.

The Red Sox looked like they were going to get a shut out until the 9th, and it was a real pitchers duel until the 7th. The Red Sox batted around in the 7th, with three home runs to show for it. The bullpen was terrible, after Kevin Correia allowed 4 of his own, three in the 7th.

Troy Munoz started shaky and came on strong late. Jon Lester was the stronger of the two pitchers, clearly, but the Palms had a solo homer from Frank Sohn, and a clutch 2 out single that drove in the game winner from Jose Molina.

The Palms couldn't overcome Jonathan Papelbon in this one. The Red Sox, with as many runners as they had on base, but their inability to score with the bases loaded allowed the Palms to sneak back in late. The comeback was fueled almost entirely by Billy Dupont, who hit a triple and a two run homer, his first in a few weeks.

After 9 full innings from rookies Ivan Fernandez and Kyle Weiland, the game went to extra frames. Things got dicey in the 11th, when Kevin Youkilis led off with a triple, followed by a sacrifice fly. The Palms had a lead off single from Coco Crisp, and Martin Prado won the game 4 pitches later with a 2 run, game winning, walk off blast.

The Palms sit at 66-83, officially incapable of a winning record for the second season in a row. Still, their record places them better than 4 teams in the AL and three in the NL. The hot streak in August has certainly given the team hope for next season, especially if the pitching staff continues to improve.

The Palms received another excellent outing from Dave Balierough, who went 7 strong innings allowing only 1 run. The Palms had three home runs, none more surprising than Tony Abreu's solo shot to lead off the 7th.

The Palms and Rays had a game devastating to a pitcher's ERA on Tuesday night. Fans in Tampa saw 7 home runs and a lead that switched hands 5 times. Ben Zobrist was the star for Tampa, going 5-5 with a home run and a double. The Palms had a 3-5 outing from Frank Sohn, who also had a home run.

The game was won primarily on the back of two homeruns by the Rays. First, it was a three run blast from Brandon Guyer that tied the game in the 2nd, and then the Rays went ahead by 2 on a two run blast by Sean Rodriguez in the 6th. The Palms had the bases loaded with no outs in the 9th, but Jaspero Gonzalez grounded into a game ending double play.

Martin Prado was an interesting addition to the Palms a couple seasons ago after Darrin Jones went to Los Angeles. The thought was that he would provide a good top of the order bat, getting on base and being a solid defender at third. Nobody expected him to turn in the power he has. This season, he leads the team in isolated power, thanks in large part to his 36 doubles, 8 triples and 23 home runs.

This game went 12, and was tied at 3 when it got to that point. In the 12th, the Blue Jays scored 4, including a three run homer from Mike McCoy. In the bottom of the 12th, the Palms drew within 1 on a Paul Janish 2 run single, but it would not be enough.

Ivan Fernandez's best outing in many games was a waste, as the Palms struggled to score their own runs off of Henderson Alvarez.

The Palms and Blue Jays played to a 2-2 draw through 8 innings, before things got interesting. Edwin Encarnacion led off with a home run in the top of the 9th for Toronto, but the Palms rode two hits and a walk to two runs of their own. The game winner came when Jaspero Gonzalez beat a throw to first on an attempted double play, giving Miami the win.

Frank Sohn stormed on to the seen this month, driving his total to 90RBI on the season, good for the team lead. He was named player of the game on 5 different occasions in August, which was decidedly one of the better months of the year for the Palms.

Tim Wakefield pitched magnificently in his attempt to get his 200th career victoriy, but Kevin Correia was better. The Palms finally went ahead in the 7th after tying it in the 6th when Coco Crisp had a 2 out single to drive in Billy Dupont.

Boston and Miami actually went 12 innings with this game, as surprising as the final score might make that seem. The Palms Bullpen was mostly OK after Troy Munoz left after only three innings, allowing only 2 runs until Manny Parra and Blake Johnston imploded in the 12th. The Red Sox hit an incredible 4 home runs in the 12th to put the game away.

The Red Sox drove Javier Vazquez out of the game early, taking a 6-1 lead through 3. Obviously, the game then took a turn, with the Palms outscoring the guests 10-1 over the course of the rest of the game. the Palms took a 7-6 lead after 7, bu the Red Sox tied it in the 8th, a tie that the Palms erased by scoring 4 more of their own in the bottom half of the inning. The game was a slugfest, with 7 homeruns. The surprise, however, was that the Palms also had 4 triples.

It would be nice if the Palms could give some of these performances at home. They came back to win this game in the 9th, down a run, but Jordan Walden fell apart, allowing first a game tying run on a Randy Winn single, which was followed by a three run blast delivered by Paul Janish, who somehow has 17 home runs this season. A shaky bullpen still held the angels scoreless, despite loading the bases twice.

The Palms played a late game in Anaheim and took the first game of the set after their first off day in a while. The Palms hit three early home runs to take a 4-2 lead, but their big blow came in the 7th, when they batted around. Billy Dupont hit a bases loaded double that ended up clearing the bases.
