Giants Get By Marlins

     The San Francisco Giants dropped the Miami Marlins 5-3 at Oracle Park on Friday night. The Giants have won the last three meetings between both clubs. 

     Miami(8-11) got the lead on the third pitch of their first at-bat. Jazz Chisholm Jr. walloped a lead-off solo home run to right-center field on a 2-0 count. 

     In the third inning, San Francisco(13-7) took the lead 2-1. After a Tommy La Stella walk, Mike Yastrzemski connected with a two-run homer to left-center field on the first pitch. 

     The Giants extended their lead to 5-1 in the bottom of the seventh. Wilmer Flores knocked in Mauricio Dubon with a base hit into center field. Brandon Belt followed with a single up the middle to score Yastrzemski. Ruf came up next and hit a sacrifice fly to right field which brought in Flores. 

     The Marlins had a two-out rally, however they finished up short. Miguel Rojas reached first base on a throwing error by Flores. Jesus Aguilar cracked a two-run homer to left field on a 1-1 pitch for his first home run of the season.
