MIAMI—Jake Peavy won for the first time in more than three weeks and Tadahito Iguchi hit the go-ahead two-run double to help the San Diego Padres defeat the Florida Marlins 7-2 on Saturday night.

Peavy (4-1) allowed two runs, five hits, walked two and struck out eight in 5 2-3 innings. It was the 2007 National League Cy Young Award winner's first win since April 11.

Mike Jacobs homered and Jeremy Hermida had three hits for the Marlins, who have dropped four of five.

Ricky Nolasco (1-3) gave up six runs and 10 hits in 4 2-3 innings. He walked two and struck out two.

San Diego's Adrian Gonzalez homered off Logan Kensing in the ninth. It was Gonzalez's third hit of the game and seventh home run of the year.

Josh Bard's run-scoring double capped a three-run fifth that chased Nolasco and gave the Padres a 6-2 lead.

San Diego went ahead 3-2 in the second on Iguchi's two-out, two-run double.

With one out, Paul McAnulty was hit by a pitch. He took third on Brian Giles' two-out single. Iguchi drove in both when he doubled to left.

Jacobs hit his eighth home run, a two-run shot to left, to give Florida a 2-1 lead with two out in the first.

Giles fouled out into a double play to end the fourth. 3B Jorge Cantu caught Giles' pop while on a full run toward the wall along third, then spun and threw to SS Hanley Ramirez, who covered third base. Ramirez tagged McAnulty, who tried to advance after tagging up from second.

Ramirez failed to reach base, snapping his string of doing so in 47 straight home games.
