Jones Loney and Casey Blake both homered and teamed to drive in seven runs Wednesday, carrying the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 9-2 win over Philadelphia.


Los Angeles ended a two-game skid and won for just the second time since slugger Manny Ramirez began his 50-game suspension.


Loney hit a three-run homer to highlight a five-run fourth and Blake contributed a two-run blast in the ninth. Loney also drove in a run with a single in the fifth and later in that inning Blake produced a sacrifice fly.


The Dodgers pounded out 15 hits to make an easy winner out of Randy Wolf (2-1), who allowed a run on three hits while striking out eight over six innings.


Jamie Moyer (3-3) absorbed the loss, surrendering seven runs on eight hits in 4 1/3. He remained stuck on 249 career wins.


Philadelphia’s Jayson Werth, who equaled a franchise record by stealing four bases in Tuesday’s 5-3 win over the Dodgers, was on base four times Wednesday without attempting a steal.
