''We needed a win today to turn this road trip in the positive,'' said Rays manager Kevin Cash, whose club finished an eight-game trip 5-3. ''With the way we started we had to finish a

Odorizzi (2-2) struck out seven and walked three, plus delivered an RBI single for his first career hit. Hank Conger hit a two-run single, Logan Morrison had three hits and Brad Miller had two hits and two stolen bases for the Rays.

''He's starting to see the ball better,'' Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. ''That's really what you want.''

Marlins starter Tom Koehler (2-5) allowed six hits and three runs in five innings, striking out six but walking five for the third consecutive outing. The Marlins are 0-5 in his May

''Unacceptable,'' Koehler said. ''It's something that we're looking at and seeing if we're just missing on pitches or if there's something in the delivery.''
Odorizzi left with a 3-0 lead, and the Rays nearly gave it away.
Stanton greeted Enny Romero with a homer to lead off the sixth, Dietrich delivered an RBI single five pitches later to chase the left-hander and Miami was quickly within 3-2.
