Dioner Navarro singled to center with the bases loaded and none out in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the Los Angeles Dodgers a 3-2 victory over the visiting Florida Marlins on Friday.

Navarro’s single off Clay Hensley (0-1) to score Casey Blake from third as Los Angeles snapped a three-game losing streak.

Blake and Andre Ethier led off the ninth inning with singles. Blake stopped at second on Ethier’s single before moving on to third when Florida right fielder Mike Stanton fumbled the ball.

Matt Kemp was walked intentionally to load the bases before Navarro blistered his game-winning hit up the middle to hand Florida just its second loss in seven games.

The Marlins tied the game in the eighth against Rubby De La Rosa (1-0) when Greg Dobbs delivered his third hit of the night, a single to right that drove in Hanley Ramirez from third.

Ethier homered off Javier Vazquez in the sixth inning to give the Dodgers a 2-1 lead.

James Loney homered in the second inning to give the Dodgers a 1-0 lead.

Dodgers starter Jon Garland allowed just one run and five hits in 6 1/3 innings. He struck out two and walked four.

Vazquez allowed just two runs and three hits in six innings. He struck out three and walked one.
