Alex Cobb pitched shutout ball for the second time in three starts, Thairo Estrada and Brett Wisely homered, and the San Francisco Giants beat the visiting Milwaukee Brewers 4-1.
Joey Bart also doubled in a run for the Giants, who won their fourth straight, including both games to start the three-game series.
The Brewers avoided a shutout by scoring in the ninth off the Giants' third pitcher, John Brebbia, on a pair of walks and Owen Miller's one-out RBI single. Cobb pitched with a lead most of the way after Bart gave the hosts a 1-0 advantage with his two-out double in the second that scored Michael Conforto, who had walked.
J.D. Davis had a pair of singles for the Giants, who won despite totaling just six hits. The Brewers also had six.
