By contrast, Giants starter Jeff Samardzija lasted four batters into the fifth inning and yielded six runs and nine hits, including five for extra bases. Samardzija's most significant tormentors were Scooter Gennett, who opened the game with his first of two doubles, and Hernan Perez and Kirk Nieuwenhuis, who homered back-to-back in the fourth inning.
Milwaukee's three-run outburst in the fifth inning finished Samardzija, who has allowed a team-high five home runs this spring. Gordon Beckham's RBI single got the Giants on the board in the seventh, and Giants No.
