The Giants scored four runs in the 5th inning, breaking a scoreless tie, and then held on to win their tenth straight game. It was a bullpen effort once again with rookie Ryan Walker opening the game. This time it was Sean Hjelle who did the long stretch--four innings of three-hit ball with five strikeouts--and kept the Giants in the game. Righty submariner Tyler Rogers gave up a run in the 8th and that's the first he's allowed since May 20th (11 appearances, 10-2/3 IP).
The winning rally against Yu Darvish started with an infield single by Luis Matos who then stole second.
