SAN FRANCISCO • It wasn't until his eighth and final inning of an overwhelming afternoon at AT&T Park that Lance Lynn started overpowering hitters.
He had done well enough confounding them for seven innings.
Lynn sent the Cardinals toward what could have been a 1-0 victory Saturday against the Giants with eight innings of one-hit baseball. The Giants tied it in the ninth to send a 1-1 game into the 10th at AT&T Park.
Lynn struck out the side in the eighth inning and those were three of his four strikeouts on the afternoon.
