MIAMI, June 6 (UPI) -- Ronny Paulino doubled in two runs in Florida's three-run fifth to lead the Marlins to a 5-4 victory Saturday over San Francisco.

Jorge Cantu also doubled in a run in the fifth. Hanley Ramirez doubled twice, scored two runs and drove in one for Florida.

Marlins' starter Andrew Miller (2-2) ran into trouble in the sixth when he left with the bases loaded and two out. The left-hander gave up two runs -- one earned -- on four hits and a walk while striking out five.

Burke Badenhop came on and pitched nearly 2 1/3 perfect frames with one walk.

Aaron Rowand's two-run single in the ninth made it a one-run game. Rowand has a 16-game hitting streak, the longest active streak in the majors.

Losing pitcher Jonathan Sanchez (2-5) gave up five runs on eight hits in 4 2/3 innings.
