He scored 2 times and drove in 3. Nate Ray snagged the win in relief. He goes to 1-0 on the season. Sam Palacios suffered the loss. Chicago now has a record of 5-6.

Making an impact for the home team was Glenn Valentine. In the bottom of the sixth, the 26-year old shortstop had a run-scoring walk. That made the score 5-3, Giants.

"What's not to like about a win?" said Valentine.
