SAN FRANCISCO – Luis Gonzalez singled to right field and an error by outfielder Charlie Blackmon allowed Donovan Walton to score, giving the Giants a 2-1 win over the Colorado Rockies in 10 innings at Oracle Park.
Gonzalez hit a Carlos Estévez pitch to right and Walton stopped at third base. But after Blackmon overran the ball, Walton trotted home as the Giants evened their three-game series with the Rockies at one win apiece.
The Giants had a chance to take the lead with two outs in the eighth. Gonzalez stole second base, then advanced to third on a wild pitch from Rockies right-hander Tyler Kinley. But Kinley settled down and struck out Joc Pederson with a 90 mph slider.
