CINCINNATI (AP) - Jeff Keppinger and Brandon Phillips hit two-run homers in the seventh inning Monday night, breaking open a tied game for an 8-7 win over the surging Florida Marlins.

The win gave right-hander Aaron Harang a long-awaited victory.

The Marlins arrived with a seven-game winning streak and the best record in the majors. Things looked good early, when they piled up three solo homers off the 2-5 Harang, including another one by Dan Uggla.

Finally, Cincinnati's wildly inconsistent offense came through for its No. 1 starter.

Keppinger snapped a 4-all tie with his homer off reliever Taylor Tankersley, who is 0-1. Phillips later connected for his seventh homer.
