BUSINESS AS USUAL

MIAMI MORNING SUN

MIAMI - AT THIS RATE, PHILLIES OFFICIALS MAY WANT TO TAKE A WALK THROUGH OF THE AREA'S VOODOO CITY.

AARON CONNER'S TWO-OUT SOLO-SHOT IN THE BOTTOM OF THE FIRST INNING WAS JUST PART OF A PHILLIE-TORMENTING 3-OF-4 FOUR NIGHT THAT INCLUDED ANOTHER RUN AND RUNNER KNOCKED IN.

THE MARLINS WENT ON AN ASTONISHING 25-4 STREAK TO CAP THE '31 SEASON AND GIVE FLORIDA THE NL EAST CROWN AND LEAVE THE PHILLIES OUT IN THE POST-SEASON COLD.

 CONNER NOW HAS 819 CAREER HOMERS, HE LOOKS FORWARD TO THE MADHOUSE ATMOSPHERE THAT WILL OVERTAKE HIM AS HE NEARS MIGUEL CABRERA'S ALL-TIME MARK OF 832.
