National League Roundup

BRAVES 4, MARLINS 0

MIAMI - Rookie Jorge Campillo pitched seven innings and two relievers completed a two-hitter to help the Atlanta Braves beat the Florida Marlins, 4-0, last night.

The 29-year-old Campillo (5-4), who moved into the rotation in May, allowed both hits, walked one and lowered his ERA to 2.83.

Will Ohman and Mike Gonzalez each pitched one perfect inning. Mark Teixera and Mark Kotsay each had two hits, drove in a run, and scored once.

Florida's Chris Volstad (2-1) allowed three runs in six innings in his third major-league appearance. The Marlins fell a game behind the idle NL East leaders, the Phillies and the New York Mets.

Campillo's performance was a welcome turnaround for the Braves, who had given up 23 runs and 31 hits in their last two games, both losses.

The Marlins lead the majors with 140 home runs, but they're a fastball-hitting team, and Campillo rarely topped 80 m.p.h.

It was reminiscent of the Marlins' loss Friday to Phillies junkballer Jamie Moyer, who has beaten Florida 10 times in 10 career starts.

Campillo retired the first 12 batters before Josh Willingham walked to start the fifth. Mike Jacobs singled with one out, but Cody Ross hit into a double play.
