Anibal Sanchez pitched seven scoreless innings and the Florida Marlins got to the bullpen of the St. Louis Cardinals for a 5-1 victory on Wednesday.

Dan Uggla and Cameron Maybin each had solo home runs for the Marlins, who have now won six of seven.

Hanley Ramirez returned to the lineup and had three hits and an RBI. The All-Star shortstop was benched on Tuesday, a day after being removed from a game by manager Fredi Gonzalez for failing to hustle while on defense.

Sanchez (3-2) allowed just four hits and struck out eight batters to win for the first time in three starts.

The Marlins broke open a tie game with two runs in each of the sixth and seventh innings off Blake Hawksworth (0-2).

Chris Coghlan had a sacrifice fly and Ramirez brought in a run on an infield single in the sixth, before Uggla hit his 11th homer and Maybin added his third blast in the ensuing frame.

St. Louis starter Jaime Garcia took a no-decision despite throwing five scoreless innings. He allowed five hits and struck out four.

David Freese broke the shutout with a ninth-inning single that scored Colby Rasmus.
