The Giants scored five runs in the fifth inning to spoil Mat Latos' White Sox debut.
Latos had gone through all of his previous work on the back fields of Camelback Ranch or in "B" games before moving to Cactus League action. He allowed one run on three hits over the first three innings, throwing 32 strikes out of his first 38 pitches, but the Giants were on him as the pitch count rose.
Brandon Belt (3 RBIs) delivered a go-ahead shot with a mammoth two-run blast to right field after Joe Panik's leadoff double in the fifth.
