SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Logan Webb gave up four hits and one run in six innings, Drew Gilbert had three hits including a home run and three RBIs, and the San Francisco Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 7-1 on Saturday.
Webb (8-7) struck out seven and did not issue a walk and secured his 1,100th career strikeout when he fanned Zac Veen swinging on a four-seam fastball in the second inning.
Gilbert got San Francisco on the board in the third with a home run just over the right field wall.
The Giants scored six runs in fourth inning. Turner Hill, in his major league debut, got the rally started with a sacrifice fly with the bases loaded. Gilbert hit a two-run single, prompting Rockies manager Warren Schaeffer to pull starter Michael Lorenzen (3-11).
Lorenzen allowed four hits, six earned runs, and walked three batters in 3 2/3 innings. He threw 82 pitches.
Rafael Devers knocked in a run on a ground-rule double down the left field line, Gilbert scored on a wild pitch by reliever Parker Mushinski, and Bryce Eldridge batted in one more run for a 7-1 lead.
Webb took a hit to the right shoulder area on a comebacker in the fifth but continued pitching after the Giants’ medical staff came to the mound to check on him. The righty was relieved by Carson Seymour after the sixth inning. Seymour only allowed one more hit in two innings. Dylan Smith closed out the ninth.
Cole Carrigg drove in Colorado's run in the third.
San Francisco’s Jung Hoo Lee added two hits and a walk. It was the fifth time this season the Giants’ offense had 10 or more hits.
Colorado finished with five hits and had its three-game winning streak halted.

IRVINE, Calif. (AP) — Ten years to the week after ending his career at the Rio de Janeiro Olympics with 23 career gold medals, Michael Phelps turned up at the Pan Pacific Championships with two of his four young sons.
And one is interested in swimming.
Beckett, who's 8, and brother Maverick, who's 6, sat with their dad and mom Nicole watching two days of the international meet featuring the U.S., Australia, Canada and Japan. Oldest brother Boomer, age 10, was keeping youngest brother Nico, age 2, entertained at home.
Beckett took a keen interest in the racing. The U.S. team is being overseen by Phelps' longtime coach, Bob Bowman, who is an unofficial grandfather to the boys.
“Grandpa Bob is giving him some pointers here and there,” Phelps said. “I would say he’s got more of a sprinter-type stroke, so not me, which kind of makes me happy.”
The family is researching coaches in Phoenix, where they live, for Beckett.
“If he wants to be a swimmer, I will support it,” Phelps said. “I will never push him into it. I want him to become his own person. I just hope he has fun.”
Phelps was careful to explain some of the finer points to Beckett.
“I was like, ‘Dude, if you want to train hard and literally grind, this is the sport,’” he said.
Phelps began swimming when he was 7 in his hometown of Baltimore, where he was initially afraid to put his face in the water. He joined a local club partly to follow his older sisters who swam and also to channel his high energy levels that occasionally bedeviled his single mother, Debbie. He made his Olympic debut at 15 in the 2000 Sydney Games.
Now he sees some of himself in his second son's traits.
“He has a hard time turning the switch off, so when he gets angry, he gets angry,” Phelps said. “That was the same way I was, so stare at that black line and scream as loud as you possibly can.”
