Jackson, Cueto help Giants split doubleheader

SAN FRANCISCO -- Austin Jackson hit a go-ahead three-run double in the fifth inning, Johnny Cueto won his third consecutive decision and the San Francisco Giants beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 8-3 for a split of their doubleheader Saturday.

In the first game, Chase Utley hit three doubles and a single as the Los Angeles did damage against every San Francisco pitcher except emergency reliever Pablo Sandoval and routed the Giants 15-6 after losing Yasiel Puig to an injured foot and hip earlier in the day.
