Turner, Dodgers beat Marlins 3-2

MIAMI (AP) — Justin Turner homered and singled to increase his batting average to .374, and Los Angeles won for the 29th time in 33 games, including nine in a row.

Five Los Angeles pitchers combined for 16 strikeouts with no walks. Kenley Jansen got the four outs for his 23rd save in as many chances as the Dodgers (64-29) climbed 35 games above .500 for the first time since 1977 by completing their big league-high 11th sweep.

Giancarlo Stanton lost his glove over the 8 1/2-foot wall in right field trying unsuccessfully to catch a triple by Chris Taylor.

Rich Hill (6-4) allowed one run and struck out nine in five innings.

Chris O'Grady (1-1), making his second big league start, gave up three runs in five innings.
