On a fine Mother’s Day, the San Francisco Giants honored everyone’s mother by beating the Saint Louis Cardinals 4-3, to win back-to-back games for the first time this month.
Jakob Junis turned in a solid start, going five innings and allowing two runs on just three hits with five strikeouts. Both runs came off a second inning homer by Juan Yepez, the only real mistake Junis made all day.
LaMonte Wade Jr. made his return to the lineup felt, though, by blasting a two-run homer in the bottom of that inning that tied up the score.
