The Florida Marlins staked Nate Robertson to a four-run lead Wednesday, but the San Diego Padres got it all back in one inning -- and then some.
San Diego scored five runs in the fifth -- David Eckstein's three-run double being the biggest blow -- and the Padres won 6-4, their 10th win in 12 games.
Robertson (2-2) didn't allow a hit until the fourth, but the Padres teed off on him in the fifth, scoring five runs before he could record an out.
Jerry Hairston Jr., who started at shortstop in place of Everth Cabrera (hamstring) for the second day in a row, got the Padres on the board with an RBI single. Eckstein tied it at 4 with a three-run double, and Adrian Gonzalez put the Padres ahead 5-4 with a single to score Eckstein.
Yorvit Torrealba added his first home run of the year in the eighth.
Kevin Correia (4-1) didn't pitch past the fifth, but still won his fourth consecutive start.
The Marlins scored two in the first on an RBI single by Wes Helms and a sacrifice fly by Jorge Cantu. Cantu added a solo home run in the third, his fifth of the year.
