The Giants split their four-game set with San Diego and won consecutive games for the first time since June 17-18.
SAN DIEGO — A day after Carlos Rodón turned in the most dominant showing by a Giants starter this season, Alex Wood followed on Sunday with an almost equally impressive performance.
The 12-run differential was the Giants’ largest margin of the season and their dozen runs were their most since a 12-10 win in Atlanta on June 21. Their 17 hits had been outdone only once previously this season, with 19 in their wild 13-12 win over the Mets back in May.

Afterward, Kapler asserted that it was “one of the better pitching performances of Wood’s career,” a notion that Wood met with about 30 seconds of hearty laughter.
