Cueto stellar in Giants debut

MILWAUKEE - Tuesday was primary election day in Wisconsin, with Donald, Hillary, Ted and Bernie nervously combing through the exit polls and vote counts.

Inside Miller Park, the Giants saw the earliest returns on their $130 million investment in Johnny Cueto and had to smile after he pitched them a 2-1 victory.

Cueto allowed one run on six hits in seven innings, walked none and struck out four.

He held a 2-1 lead from innings four through seven, threw 92 mph in the seventh inning and displayed his athleticism by outracing four runners to first base on right-side groundballs.
