By the Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO – Pinch-hitter Alen Hanson had a tying, two-run homer off Brad Boxberger with two outs in the ninth inning, Brandon Crawford singled home Andrew McCutchen in the 10th and the San Francisco Giants beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-4 Wednesday for their sixth win in seven games.

Arizona led 4-2 when Boxberger walked Mac Williamson with one out in the ninth. Nick Hundley struck out, Hanson batted for Austin Jackson and turned on a fastball over the middle of the plate, driving it over the right-field wall. Hanson has five home runs in 52 at-bats with the Giants this season.
