Marlins' Ramirez out of starting lineup vs. Mets
Sports Network | September 28, 2008
New York, NY (Sports Network) - Hanley Ramirez was out of Florida's lineup on Sunday against the New York Mets with a shoulder injury.
The All-Star shortstop came into the Marlins' final regular season game with a .301 average in addition to a career-high 33 home runs with 67 RBI and 125 runs scored.
Center fielder Cameron Maybin took Ramirez's place in the leadoff spot, and Alfredo Amezaga shifted to shortstop for the Marlins, who once again look to spoil New York's postseason chances in the last regular-season game scheduled at Shea Stadium.
The Mets are currently tied in the NL wild card race with the Brewers, who host Chicago Sunday.
