San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Matt Cain had things working for him on Tuesday night as he pitched eighth great innings and only gave up two hits to pick up the win. The Giants beat the Cubs by the score of 2-1 behind great pitching from Cain and evened up the four game series at one game each.
The game almost got away from the Giants in the ninth inning however as Brian Wilson gave up three hits and one run. Wilson was able to get a groundball to end the game with tying run at second base and record his 23rd save of the season.
Fred Lewis stole home in the first inning for the Giants first run of the game and then Randy Winn had a rbi single in the sixth inning to score Lewis for the Giants second run. They didn’t have much offense but it was enough to get the win the way Cain pitched the first eight innings of the game.
