Game Summary
San Francisco Giants defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 6-5. The Giants rode a 13-hit attack and a go-ahead, two-run homer by Drew Gilbert in the top of the 10th to prevail. Jonah Cox (3-for-4, RBI, BB) and Andrew Knizner (3-for-4, RBI) provided pivotal contact throughout the game while the offense capitalized on St. Louis miscues. Anthony Molina worked 5.2 scoreless innings, allowing two hits and striking out six, and the late innings decided the outcome: Reiver Sanmartin was credited with the win and Joel Kuhnel recorded the save after Thomas Saggese’s sacrifice fly in the bottom of the 10th fell short of forcing another extra frame.
