MLB: Florida's four-run fifth downs Braves

Atlanta, GA (Sports Network) - Wes Obermueller outpitched Tim Hudson and Aaron Boone knocked in a pair of runs as Florida downed Atlanta, 6-4, in the first of a four-game series at Turner Field.
Looking 5 1/2 games up to Atlanta in the National League East starting play Monday, Florida moved a game closer with a workmanlike effort by Obermueller (2-3) and timely hitting from the batting order top to bottom.
Dan Uggla was the only Marlin with a multi-hit hit night and Miguel Cabrera's go-ahead sacrifice fly was part of Florida's big four-run fifth inning. Obermueller scattered three runs and eight hits with three walks and five strikeouts through five frames.
Yunel Escobar had a big night, replacing the injured Chipper Jones with a 4- for-4 night that featured a double and a long fly ball that skidded off the yellow line atop the right-field wall and over for his first major league home run.
Brian McCann recorded three hits in Atlanta's second straight setback.
Hudson (6-4), on the other hand, had a night to forget, yielding six runs -- five earned -- on seven hits with three walks and five strikeouts over six innings.
Atlanta took a quick 1-0 lead in the first on Willie Harris' double and McCann's run-scoring single. Florida quickly squared the game in the top of the second with Cabrera's leadoff triple and Jeremy Hermida's subsequent single.
