Scott Dohmann's first pitch to Tucker was deposited over the right field wall and into McCovey Cove. Dohman also gave up a three-run homer to Marquis Grissom in San Francisco's comeback Friday night.

Colorado starter Jamey Wright allowed a lone run in 7 1/3 innings, but the relief corps let him down.

Scott Eyre (1-0) worked the eighth to get the win and Armando Benitez, even though he gave up a run in the ninth, got the save.
