Dodgers 2, Marlins 0
MIAMI -- Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Zack Greinke, who had gone 10 straight starts without a win even though he is leading the majors in ERA, beat the Miami Marlins 2-0 on Sunday at Marlins Park
Greinke (6-2), who had been 0-2 with eight no-decisions during his winless streak, has a 1.58 ERA.
On Sunday, he allowed four hits, one walk and no runs. Greinke left the game after 7 2/3 innings and 101 pitches despite having no one on base. Still, he allowed the minimum three batters in four of his seven complete innings, and he never allowed a Miami base-runner to get past second.
Greinke got relief help from Adam Liberatore, who got the final out in the eighth, and Kenley Jansen, who got his 11th save by pitching a scoreless ninth. Jensen worked around a leadoff double by left fielder Christian Yelich.
The loss went to Marlins rookie right-hander Jose Urena (1-4), who allowed four hits, four walks and one run in five innings.
Los Angeles (43-34) took two out of three games in the series. The Dodgers got three hits and one RBI first baseman Adrian Gonzalez and two hits and one RBI from second baseman Howie Kendrick.
Miami (31-46) dropped to a season-worst 15 games under .500.
Los Angeles opened the scoring in the fifth when shortstop Jimmy Rollins hit an infield single, advanced to second on a balk by Urena and to third on a Greinke bunt.
After center fielder Joc Pederson drew a walk, the Marlins nearly completed a double play on a ball hit by Kendrick to escape the jam. But on shortstop Adeiny Hechavarria's relay throw, first baseman Justin Bour used improper footwork and his stretch pulled him off the bag, allowing Rollins to score.
The Dodgers made it 2-0 in the seventh. Kendrick worked a two-out, eight-pitch walk and scored from first on a double off the left-field fence by Gonzalez.
NOTES: Dodgers RF Yasiel Puig, who sat out Friday and entered Saturday's game as a pinch hitter, started his first game since developing a blister on his left hand. ... The Dodgers rested hot-hitting 3B Justin Turner (.320), starting Alberto Callaspo. ... Even though the Dodgers' franchise record 13-game errorless streak ended Saturday, the team still ranks second in the majors in fielding percentage. ... Marlins 2B Dee Gordon, who played Saturday even though he was so sick he vomited in the infield during the game, got the start again on Sunday. ... Marlins LF Christian Yelich joined Juan Pierre in 2005 and Chris Coghlan in 2009 as the only left-handed hitters in franchise history to get four hits in one game, all against lefty pitching. Yelich also joined Cardinals 3B Matt Carpenter as the only left-handed hitters to get three hits against Dodgers LHP Clayton Kershaw.
