The Giants got a big at-bat from right fielder Nelson Cruz. For the game, Cruz was 1 for 4 with a home run. In the top of the seventh, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 8th home run of the season gave San Francisco a 2-1 lead.

"I felt good up there," said Cruz. "I saw the ball well."
