Marlins 6, Cardinals 5
ST. LOUIS — Mike Stanton hit a tying home run in the fifth inning and tripled and scored the go-ahead run in the eighth to lift the Marlins. Gaby Sanchez ended Kyle Lohse's 22-inning scoreless streak with his first grand slam, also Florida's major league-high third of the season. The Marlins improved to 18-9, their best start ever.
