Florida had three straight shutouts before losing Saturday.
ASSOCIATED PRESS
MIAMI -- Helped by Hee-Seop Choi's three hits, the Los Angeles Dodgers ended Florida's shutout streak and came from behind twice to win 11-6 Saturday night.
Choi went 3-for-3 with two RBIs against his former team, scored three times and started a decisive rally in the seventh inning. Dioner Navarro drove in two runs with his first career double in the second to end the Marlins' streak of 28 consecutive scoreless innings pitched.
Brian Moehler, bidding for Florida's fourth shutout in a row, lasted only two-plus innings and gave up four runs. After allowing a total of seven runs in the previous seven games, the Marlins blew leads of 3-0 and 6-5.
Choi had a single, double and triple, and was hit by a pitch from Ron Villone (0-2) to start a comeback in the seventh.
Milton Bradley then singled, and Jeff Kent doubled off Antonio Alfonseca to drive in the tying run. After an intentional walk, Jayson Werth walked to force in a run. Jose Valentin's RBI infield single capped the three-run rally and put the Dodgers ahead 8-6.
Much of the crowd of 34,613 had already departed when Los Angeles' Ricky Ledee hit a two-run homer in the ninth, his seventh.
Kent scored three times and Werth drove in two runs. Elmer Dessens (1-1), the second of six Los Angeles pitchers, worked 1 2-3 scoreless innings. With the bases loaded, Duaner Sanchez got Miguel Cabrera to ground into a game-ending double play for his third save.
Cabrera hit a three-run homer off former teammate Brad Penny, making his first start in Miami since being traded to Los Angeles on July 31, 2004. Penny pitched five innings and gave up six earned runs, matching a season high.

Padres 7, Braves 2
ATLANTA -- Xavier Nady hit a grand slam off rookie Joey Devine in the 13th inning to lead the San Diego Padres past Atlanta 7-2 on Saturday, handing the Braves their third straight loss at Turner Field.
Devine (0-1), the Braves' first-round pick in the June draft, was called up from Double-A Mississippi before the game, took an early morning flight to Atlanta and made his major league debut on 45 minutes sleep.
The right-hander pitched a scoreless 12th and was one pitch from finishing the 13th when Nady connected with a 1-2 fastball, sending a 415-foot drive into the center-field seats.
The Padres loaded the bases on Eric Young's single and two walks, one of them intentional. After Nady's 13th homer, the Padres added another run on Miguel Olivo's run-scoring single off John Foster.

Cardinals 4, Giants 2
ST. LOUIS -- Matt Morris (13-5) earned his 100th win and Jim Edmonds scored twice for St. Louis.
Mark Grudzielanek's single snapped a 2-all tie in the sixth inning, and the Cardinals added one more run with another successful suicide squeeze. Albert Pujols and John Mabry each had an RBI for St. Louis, which activated right fielder Larry Walker from the disabled list before the game.
Jason Isringhausen got four outs for his 32nd save in 35 opportunities. He retired pinch-hitter Moises Alou on a routine fly with the bases loaded to end it.
