Giants at the plate: Randy Winn homered in his first at-bat, drilling a two-out drive to right field in the first inning. Eugenio Velez and Fred Lewis lashed RBI triples in the sixth and eighth, respectively.
Cubs on the mound: Winn's homer was the only significant lapse by starter Ryan Dempster in two innings. Sean Gallagher struck out two in two innings and allowed a run.
Giants on the mound: Starter Noah Lowry plainly lacked control, walking three, hitting a batter and flinging two pitches to the backstop in 1 1/3 innings. No. 5 starting candidate Kevin Correia allowed five runs and seven hits in his lone inning, but Jack Taschner pitched two perfect innings.
Cactus League records: Cubs 1-0; Giants 0-1.
Up next: The Cubs face a split squad of Giants again on Friday, this time at Mesa's HoHoKam Park. Cubs ace Carlos Zambrano will oppose Giants left-hander Jonathan Sanchez. The other half of Giants will stay at home to face Erik Bedard and the Seattle Mariners. Tim Lincecum will start for San Francisco.
