Placeholder Image
NEW YORK (AP) — Madison Bumgarner pitched seven neat innings, Pablo Sandoval homered to match a team mark set by Willie Mays and the San Francisco Giants beat the New York Mets 7-2 Monday night for a doubleheader sweep. The Giants took the opener 6-1 as Tim Lincecum posted his first win of the season despite another uneven performance. Slightly over 1,000 fans bundled up in the stands when the opener began on a windy, raw afternoon better suited for the Bay Area.
