PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Carlos Santana had three hits and five RBIs, Nick Pivetta struck out seven in five scoreless innings and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the San Francisco Giants 11-3 Wednesday night.
The Phillies, who are 20-11 since a 1-4 start, will try to sweep the four-game series Thursday afternoon.
Pivetta (2-2) bounced back from an awful start against the Nationals in which he lasted only one inning and allowed six runs. He scattered four hits and didn’t walk anyone.
Giants starter Chris Stratton (3-3) gave up five runs and five hits in 4 2/3 innings.
