SAN FRANCISCO -- Given Brandon Crawford's productivity thus far, it could safely be assumed that the 0-for-18 skid he took into Saturday's game against the San Diego Padres wouldn't last much longer. It didn't.
Crawford turned the third-longest hitless streak of his career into a mere memory as he went 3-for-3 with three RBIs in the Giants' 5-3 triumph over the San Diego Padres.
Crawford tripled home Andrew McCutchen in the fourth inning to open the Giants' scoring before doubling home Alen Hanson in the sixth to break a 1-1 tie.
