ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -- Elena Baranova scored 19 points and Debbie Black added 15 points and six steals as the Miami Sol beat the Orlando Miracle 75-64 on Saturday night.

Sheri Sam also had 15 points and five assists for Miami (20-11), which has won five straight games to move into position for the No. 2 spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs.

New York also is 20-11, but Miami holds the tiebreaker with a 2-1 edge in head-to-head meetings. Both teams have one game remaining in the regular season.

Miami won despite setting a WNBA record for fewest rebounds in one game with 13, one less than New York had at Charlotte on July 30, 1999.
