Three homers back Arrieta to 16th victory

San Francisco's Matt Cain took the loss and was charged with six runs over five innings, the seventh time in 10 outings in which he's given up at least four runs. The Giants dropped 7 1/2 games back in the Wild Card race and lost for the sixth time in their last eight games.

MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Kaboom: Schwarber launched his home run with two on and two outs in the third and now has four hits over his last eight games, and all have been homers. In 42 games this year, the rookie has 12 homers.
