Despite early momentum, Rox drop finale

SAN FRANCISCO -- Outfielder Jae-Gyun Hwang hit a go-ahead home run in his MLB debut on Wednesday as the Giants topped the Rockies, 5-3, to secure their first series sweep of the year and stretch Colorado's losing streak to a season-high eight games.

The Rockies took an early lead on a two-run single by Nolan Arenado in the first inning, but the Giants reclaimed it with a three-run fourth inning that featured a two-run homer from Nick Hundley and an RBI groundout from Hwang. Colorado re-tied the game in the sixth on Mike Tauchman's RBI single.
