At Minute Maid Park, the Marlins set a club record, blasting six home runs en route to a 10-6 win against the Astros. Jeremy Hermida hit a pair of round-trippers, and teammates Mike Jacobs, Hanley Ramirez, Jorge Cantu, and Mike Rabelo contributed solo homers in Florida’s fourth straight victory, matching the team’s longest winning streak last season.

For the third time in the past six years, Major League Baseball adopts a stricter steroids policy. Increased testing is instituted and more power is given to outside administrators. Players named in the Mitchell Report are given amnesty and suspensions for Jose Guillen and Jay Gibbons are eliminated.

The Florida Marlins set a franchise record with six home runs in a win. Jeremy Hermida goes deep twice and Jorge Cantu, Hanley Ramirez, Mike Jacobs and Mike Rabelo all hit one out as Florida beats the Astros, 10 – 6. Roy Oswalt gives up four of the home runs.
