MIAMI, April 25 (UPI) -- Omar Infante's two-out single in the bottom of the ninth drove in the winning run Monday, rallying the Florida Marlins past the Los Angeles Dodgers 5-4.

Trailing 4-3 entering their final at-bat, the Marlins scored a pair of runs -- all with two outs -- to stun the Dodgers and take their ninth victory in 11 games.

Emilio Bonifacio drew a walk off Los Angeles closer Jonathan Broxton (1-1) and Hanley Ramirez sent him to third with a pinch-hit single. Bonifacio came in to score the tying run when shortstop Jamey Carroll overran Scott Cousin's grounder, with Ramirez going to third.

After Chris Coghlan was intentionally walked, Infante lined a pitch to left that went over the head of Jerry Sands to drive in the winning run.

Coghlan smacked a pair of homers among his three hits and Brian Sanches (3-0) picked up the win with a scoreless top of the ninth for Florida.

Sands went 3-for-4 with an RBI for the Dodgers. Andre Ethier stroke a first-inning single to extend his hitting streak to 22 games -- tying him with former Dodgers Manager Joe Torre for the longest April hitting streak ever.
