Closer Watch
Marlins: It didn't count as a blown save, but Heath Bell allowed four earned runs in the ninth inning of Monday's game against the Cardinals, allowing St. Louis to tie the game at 6-6. The game would go into extra innings where the Marlins would ultimately lose. The big shot against Bell came on a three-run home-run off the bat of Yadier Molina. After a rough start to his Marlins career, Bell had a ten game streak without allowing a run prior to Monday's blow up.
