Stanton hits 2 HRs in Marlins victory

Giancarlo Stanton homered twice, increasing his major league-leading total to 49, and tied a career high with five RBI, helping the Miami Marlins climb above .500 for the first time since April with an 8-6 victory over the San Diego Padres on Friday night.

Miami grabbed the lead for good on Marcell Ozuna’s three-run drive in the seventh inning. It was Ozuna’s 30th homer of the season.

Stanton has nine multihomer games this season, the most in the majors since Jose Bautista had nine with Toronto in 2010. Stanton’s homer total is the highest in the NL since Prince Fielder hit 50 for Milwaukee in 2007 — and the Marlins still have 35 games to play.
