D-backs strike first but fall to Giants

With the victory, the Giants (4-6) avoided losing their first three series of a season for the first time since 2007 while denying Arizona (7-3) its second 8-2 start in franchise history.

MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Striking out the side: After Cain gave up a leadoff single and subsequent walk in the sixth, Giants manager Bruce Bochy called on Cory Gearrin to come in and stem the tide. The right-hander answered the call in spectacular fashion, getting three straight strikeouts to strand two runners and get his team back in the dugout.
