MIAMI, Aug. 11 (UPI) -- Troy Glaus hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning and Brandon Webb allowed four hits in eight innings Thursday to give Arizona a 3-1 victory over Florida.

The Diamondbacks won for just the third time in nine contests.
Juan Pierre drove in the lone run for Florida, which lost for the third time in five games.
Webb (10-8) walked one and struck out seven to win his second consecutive decision following five straight defeats.
Brian Moehler allowed six hits over 6 2/3 shutout innings for the Marlins.
