SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Craig Gentry had a career-high five hits and drove in two runs, Matt Harrison pitched his third career shutout and the Texas Rangers beat the short-handed San Francisco Giants 5-0 on Friday night in a rematch of the 2010 World Series.
Josh Hamilton and Ian Kinsler also homered to power Texas to its first victory in San Francisco’s waterfront ballpark after an 0-11 start, including two during the memorable Fall Classic that the Giants won in five games.
Harrison allowed five hits, walked none and struck out four to outlast Barry Zito (5-3) in a matchup of lefties. Harrison (8-3) also tied Tampa Bay’s David Price for the most wins in the American League.
