Rookie Henry Bolte drove in Shea Langeliers with a two-out single for the final run of the inning and game. McNeil had a two-out double off Mahle (1-5) to drive in Zack Gelof for a 1-0 lead in the second. Luis Arraez tied it with his first homer this season, leading off the fourth against Aaron Civale (5-1), who allowed two runs on six hits in five innings. Harrison Bader hit his third homer - a one-out solo shot to put the Giants up 2-1 in the fifth.
Joel Kuhnel, Suarez and Luis Medina all followed Civale with a scoreless inning. Hogan Harris pitched the ninth for his third save in four opportunities. Arraez singled with two outs for his fourth hit before Harris retired Chapman on a groundout to end it.
