Giants Edge Cardinals, 3-2
In a low-scoring clash between San Francisco and St. Louis, pitcher Max Scherzer was a difference-maker. The right-hander earned player of the game honors for San Francisco in the 3-2 win. The win was credited to Carlos Alejandro Ramirez in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Cory Gearrin took the loss. The Giants bumped their record to 49-41 with this latest triumph.

Jon Jay drew 1 walk in 4 trips to the plate for San Francisco. The 33-year old center fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the seventh. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Cory Gearrin. It was his 24th RBI of the season.

Scherzer said the team appreciates the support from the fans. "I'm glad we could reward them with a good win," he said after the game.
