PHOENIX -- Bruce Bochy emptied his bench and bullpen to try and get a win in the first game of the second half. Thanks to the man Bochy just pulled from the rotation, the Giants came away victorious.
Ryan Vogelsong came out of the bullpen for two strong innings and also helped the Giants get the go-ahead run in the 12th inning of a 6-5 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. The win was Vogelsong’s first as a reliever since Sept. 14, 2005.
Brandon Crawford opened the top of the 12th with a single and took second on a passed ball.
