Offense can't back Leake in Giants debut

Making his Giants debut after being acquired from Cincinnati in a Trade Deadline-beating deal last Thursday, Mike Leake blanked Texas for five innings and appeared poised to record a scoreless sixth when Mitch Moreland singled with two outs. Up came Hamilton, who drove a 2-1 pitch inside the right-field foul screen.

MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Extending the inning: Hamilton hit the decisive home run, but it wouldn't have happened if not for Moreland's nifty single. Moreland lined a first-pitch sinker to center field to extend the inning and set up Hamilton's two-run shot.
