MLB: Los Angeles Dodgers 5, Miami 3

LOS ANGELES, May 12 (UPI) -- Chris Capuano's 6 1/3 efficient innings Sunday staked the Los Angeles Dodgers to a second straight victory following a long skid, 5-3 over Miami.

Capuano (1-2) pitched well in his second start since coming off the disabled list, baffling the Marlins, who managed just one run off him. The left-hander yielded five hits and one walk while striking out seven.
