PHOENIX - Some big hits and a risky move that paid off finally brought an end to the San Francisco Giants losing streak. Cory Schneider Devils Jersey . Tyler Colvin drove in three runs, Hunter Pence hit a towering home run and the Giants snapped their season-high six-game skid with a 6-4 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday night. Pences homer into the eating area of the restaurant in the second deck in left field to help Brandon McCarthy become the seasons first 10-game loser. "That ball was one of the longest home runs Ive seen in a long time," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. Ryan Vogelsong (5-3) gave up four runs in five innings but got his first victory in four starts and only the second for the NL West-leading Giants in 11 games "Theres two ways to get out of this thing," Vogelsong said. "Either come out and swing the bats and score a bunch of runs or throw a bunch of zeroes. We know which one happened." Aaron Hill, a .500 career hitter against Vogelsong, singled, doubled and drove two runs for the Diamondbacks. McCarthy (1-10) allowed five runs and 10 hits in five innings. The 10 hits matched a season high. After blowing his previous two opportunities, Sergio Romo escaped trouble in a scoreless ninth for his 21st save in 25 tries. With runners at second and third, two outs and Paul Goldschmidt coming to bat, Bochy went to the mound to make sure Romo knew what to do. Hill would be the next batter. The choice was to go after Goldschmidt. "Its a tough call," Bochy said. "Youre going against the book a little bit." Romo gave up a one-out, pinch-hit double to Roger Kieschnick, then Didi Gregorius beat out an infield single. The runners moved to second and third when Gerardo Parra grounded out, bringing up Goldschmidt. The Arizona slugger hit it hard to right, where Pence tracked it down. "He (Goldschmidt) is 4 for 0 and Hilly is 0 for 6 (against Romo)," Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said. "I am surprised they didnt pitch around him the whole series. ... They got away with it. " Romos pitch was very hittable. "He might have got away with that pitch, but he got him out," Bochy said, "and thats a big out for us to end this losing streak." Pablo Sandoval singled three times with an RBI and scored a run for San Francisco. Colvin singled in two runs in the first and drove in another with a ground out after Brandon Crawford tripled to lead off the fifth. San Francisco first baseman Michael Morse left the game in the bottom of the fifth inning with back tightness after an awkward swing at the plate. Morse said it was nothing serious. Bochy said hed give him Sunday off and see what happens after that. Pence got the Giants started with a one-out single up the middle in the first. Buster Posey followed with a single, then Sandoval singled Pence home, with Posey taking third when left fielder David Peralta booted the ball. Crawford drew a two-out walk to ................ the bases, then Colvins two-run double made it 3-0. It was 4-0 after Poseys double and Morses RBI single in the second. Arizona got two in the second on doubles by Hill, Miguel Montero and David Peralta. Arizona got two in the fifth to make it a one-run game before Pences homer provided a two-run cushion. NOTES: The Giants called up top 2B prospect Joe Panik from Triple-A Fresno. He made his major league debut as a pinch hitter in the eighth and walked. ... To make room for Panik, San Francisco optioned OF Juan Perez to Fresno. ... In the finale of the series on Sunday, the Giants send Madison Bumgarner (8-4, 2.85 ERA) to the mound against Arizonas Mike Bolsinger (1-2, 5.70). ... McCarthy has more RBIs (3) than wins (1). ... McCarthys lone victory came on May 3 at San Diego. He also gave up 10 hits, but in seven innings, against the Dodgers on April 11. ... The Giants stranded 10 runners, Arizona eight. Scott Stevens Devils Jersey . She still remembers the massive roar of the home crowd when the Canadians walked out on the pitch before 47,784 fans at Commonwealth Stadium in 2002. Lang expects a similar reception for the Canadian team as the host nation at this years tournament, which begins Tuesday. Andy Greene Devils Jersey . Juventus announced details of the deal Saturday, saying that Morata signed a five-year contract with the club. The deal also includes an option for Madrid to buy Morata back for up to (euro)30 million ($40. http://www.hockeydevilsshop.us/Kyle-Palmieri-Jersey/ . The same cant be said of last Saturdays 2-2 draw at Olympic Stadium against a very weakened New York Red Bulls side and one which had three stalwarts in Henry, Cahill and Olave back home in Harrison, NJ.(SportsNetwork.com) - Madison Bumgarner tries to pitch the San Francisco Giants into the World Series for the third time in five years on Thursday, as they attempt to finish off the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series at AT&T Park. Bumgarner has followed up a terrific regular season with an equally impressive postseason, as he has won two of his three starts and has allowed just two earned runs in 23 2/3 innings. He was phenomenal in his Game 1 start versus the Cards, scattering just four hits and striking out seven over 7 2/3 scoreless innings. Dating back to the 2012 World Series, the left-handers playoff ERA stands at 0.59, with 31 strikeouts and just five walks. Opposing batters are hitting .152 off him over that stretch. Overall, hes 5-3 in 10 postseason appearances with a 2.58 ERA I think without question, hes better (than he used to be), Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. In this game, you never arrive. You never stop trying to improve as a player, and thats who he is. You look at his pitches, he has a better changeup, a better breaking ball. I think hes commanding his fastball better. I think hes smarter out there. I mean, he was really good when he came up. He did a great job for us. But if you ask me now, sure, I think hes improved overall as a pitcher, the way he holds runners, swings the bat. He had a good year offensively. All these things make you a better player. If there was no Clayton Kershaw we may very well be talking about an NL Cy Young Award this season for Bumgarner, who set career-high marks in wins (18) and strikeouts (219) and pitched to a 2.98 ERA. St. Louis will also be throwing its ace on Thursday, but Adam Wainwright has been anything but the Cardinals best pitcher this postseason, going 0-1 with an 8.00 ERA in two starts. He hasnt gotten out of the fifth inning in either of his two starts and in Game 1 against the Giants he allowed three runs (2 earned) and six hits with three walks in just 4 2/3 innings. No, I have not been very proud of my starts this year in the postseason so far, said Wainwright. I also know that I was doing my very best. There was no point in time where I wasnt as prepared as Ive ever been for a start, and my arm just didnt respond like I wanted it to. But Im very confident going forward. Like Bumgarner, Wainwright figures to be amongst the NL Cy Young Award finalists afteer going 20-9 with a 2. Travis Zajac Jersey. .38 ERA this season. Still, no pitcher in baseball has thrown more innings since the start of the 2013 season than Wainwright, who has logged almost 513 (including the postseason). Nobody else wed rather have on the mound, Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. We dont look at it in series. We havent done that all season. We look at it as a game. They are letting us play again tomorrow. We can control tomorrow, and Adam Wainwright is going to set the tone for us. Everybodys got to follow suit and jump in and figure out a way to make it happen. San Francisco moved one step closer to another NL pennant on Wednesday, as Buster Posey finished with three RBI and the Giants overcame an early deficit to pull out a 6-4 win. The Giants bullpen, led by Yusmeiro Petit (1-0), only allowed one runner past first base over the final six innings, while its offense quietly pounded out 11 hits -- nine singles -- en route to a commanding 3-1 series lead. San Francisco followed a familiar script, as two of its runs scored in the pivotal three-run sixth inning came without the benefit of a hit. In fact, they have scored 12 of their last 22 runs without recording a hit. When you put the ball in play, good things happen, Bochy said. If youre not hitting long balls, you have to find ways to manufacture runs. Kolten Wong homered in the loss for the Cardinals, giving them 13 home runs this postseason. We have a tough road ahead of us, Wong said. Bumgarner is one of the toughest pitchers around, and its definitely going to be a big challenge for us. But we have a lot of confidence in our guy. Of course, the Cardinals held a 3-1 series lead over the Giants in the 2012 NLCS only to see San Francisco rally back and win the final three games en route to their World Series title. San Francisco is 15-5 at home in the NLCS, the best winning percentage of any major league team with at least 10 games of LCS play. They are riding a five- game winning streak at AT&T Park in NLCS play and have won 14 of their past 17 at home dating to 1987. The Giants took four of their seven meetings during the season with the Cardinals, outscoring them, 30-20. San Francisco has played the Cardinals three other times in the playoffs. St. Louis edged the Giants in a thrilling seven-game series in 1987, but San Francisco has beaten the Cards both in 2002 and 2012. NFL Jerseys China cheap jerseys ' ' '
