Sandy Alcantara went six strong innings, Javier Sanoja had a go-ahead bloop single in the eighth inning and the visiting Miami Marlins finished off a series victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers with a 3-2 win on Wednesday.Liam Hicks and Esteury Ruiz hit home runs as the Marlins took two of three from the two-time defending champion Dodgers for their first road series win of the season.The Dodgers loaded the bases with one out in the bottom of the ninth but Miami pulled off the victory when second baseman Xavier Edwards completed an unassisted double play on a Freddie Freeman ground ball to end the game.Alcantara gave up two runs on seven hits over six innings, while left-hander Andrew Nardi (2-1) pitched a scoreless seventh and Calvin Faucher pitched the ninth for his first save.Tyler Glasnow gave up two runs on three hits over 5 2/3 innings, while Alex Call and Dalton Rushing drove in runs for Los Angeles, which has won just one of its past four series.The Dodgers are 5-7 since April 18 and finished 3-3 on their just-completed homestand.Edwards singled to lead off the eighth inning for Miami, went to second on a groundout and scored on Sanoja's bloop single to right off right-hander Will Klein (1-2).The Marlins took a 1-0 lead in the second inning when Hicks hit a towering home run down the right field line that nearly made it into the second deck.The Dodgers answered immediately when Max Muncy doubled in the bottom of the second and scored when Edwards lost Alex Call's popup in the sun as the ball fell untouched on the infield dirt.Miami did not have another hit off Glasnow until the fifth when Ruiz hit a two-out home run on the first pitch.Los Angeles tied it 2-2 in the sixth when Kyle Tucker led off with a double and scored on Rushing's one-out single to right field.
