SAN FRANCISCO — Matt Moore earned his first win at AT&T Park, allowing just one run in 5.1 innings, and Santiago Casilla earned a four-out save as the Giants split their two-game series with the Diamondbacks with a 4-2 win Wednesday afternoon.
Moore struck out seven in his first start since coming within an out of a no-hitter at Dodger Stadium. Bruce Bochy turned to Hunter Strickland and Sergio Romo to bridge the gap to his closer, who gave up a two-out solo home run in the ninth but held on to register his 29th save of the season.
Joe Panik had three of the Giants’ nine hits and Buster Posey delivered two RBI, including a run-scoring double as part of a two-run first inning against Arizona’s starter Shelby Miller. The Giants scored another two runs in the seventh, both charged to reliever Randall Delgado.
The Giants next head to Chicago to take on the MLB-best Cubs for four games at Wrigley Field.
