Hanley Ramirez and Cameron Maybin each hit two-run homers Tuesday to lead the Florida Marlins to a 4-2 win over the New York Mets. The Marlins have won five of their last six games and remained six games behind the NL East-leading Phillies, who beat Washington Tuesday. Florida starter Rick VandenHurk went four innings, allowing one run on four hits. Brian Sanches (4-1) pitched two scoreless innings to get the win and Leo Nunez earned his 19th save of the year. Luis Castillo went 3-for-4 with an RBI for the Mets.

Omir Santos hit a homer in the fifth and drove in the game-winner with a single in the 11th Friday, giving the New York Mets a 2-1 victory over Florida. The division-leading Mets won their fourth straight. Santos tied the contest with his third home run of the season and it remained a 1-1 game until the Mets got to Brian Sanches (1-1) in the 11th. Gary Sheffield opened the 11th with a single, stole second and went to third on a throwing error by catcher Ronny Paulino.
