The San Francisco Giants, currently leading the National League West division, defeated the Chicago Cubs by a score of five runs to two on Saturday. Their victory was anchored by a strong pitching performance from Tim Lincecum, who limited the Cubs to just four hits over his time on the mound, extending into the seventh inning. Offensively, a significant contribution came from Xavier Nady, who hit a three-run double in what was his first game appearance of the season.
