Pinch hitter Nico Hoerner delivered a go-ahead, two-run single in a three-run seventh inning and the Chicago Cubs opened a three-game road series with a 3-2 victory over the San Francisco Giants on Friday night.
Marcus Stroman won his fifth straight start for the Cubs, who snapped a four-game losing streak. The Giants saw their three-game winning streak end.
Giants reliever Ryan Walker came on to get Dansby Swanson on a fly ball that advanced both baserunners, then walked Matt Mervis to set the stage for Hoerner's big hit up the middle. Having allowed just one run on five hits to that point, Stroman served up a one-out double to Brandon Crawford in the last of the seventh.
