Madison Bumgarner allowed just one run on three hits over eight innings to lead the San Francisco Giants over the Cincinnati Reds in the finale of a three-game set at Great American Ball Park on Thursday afternoon. Brandon Crawford added a three-run homer and Michael Morse hit a two-run shot for the Giants, who won the final two games of this series to end a seven-game road trip with five wins. Pablo Sandoval added three hits and scored two runs for San Francisco, which improved its major league-best record to 39-21, having won 10 of its last 13 contests. The Giants have been riding the hot arm of Bumgarner (8-3) recently. The lefty, who struck out five and didn't walk a batter, has allowed just 10 earned runs in 47 innings over his last seven starts. He is 6-0 over that span, striking out 53 with five walks.
