ANAHEIM -- The Giants used a fresh face and a night with the designated hitter to get the kind of offense they have been yearning for in an 8-1 victory Friday over the Angels.
In his first game with the Giants this season, after replacing an injured Hunter Pence (thumb) on the roster, Mac Williamson blistered a two-run home run to get things rolling in a six-run fifth inning.
Designated hitter Andrew McCutchen added a towering three-run home run later in the inning, making the Giants look nothing like the team that had scored one run or fewer in 10 of its first 18 games.
