Zito, Winn lead Giants over Rangers 3-2
SAN FRANCISCO — Barry Zito carried a no-hit bid into the seventh inning, Randy Winn hit a go-ahead single and the San Francisco Giants took advantage of another Texas mistake for a 3-2 victory over the Rangers on Sunday and a series sweep.
Zito (4-7) didn’t allow a hit until Andruw Jones’ two-run homer with none out in the seventh, a line drive that stayed just fair inside the left-field foul pole. Giants manager Bruce Bochy came out to discuss the call with the umpires. Zito had walked Michael Young on four pitches to start the inning.
Pablo Sandoval hit a pair of doubles in San Francisco’s seventh straight win over Texas dating to 2001 and 11th in a row in the Giants’ waterfront ballpark.
