Giants slugger Barry Bonds went 0-for-2 with a pair of walks and scored once. He remains at 745 career home runs, 10 behind Hank Aaron for first on the all-time list, having failed to homer in his past 11 games.

Lowry (5-4) gave up six hits, walked three and struck out three batters.

Randy Winn extended his career-best hitting streak to 20 games with a double in the sixth inning. It's the longest hitting streak by a Giant since Robby Thompson had a 21-game run in 1993.

Chris Sampson (4-4) was charged with five hits and three runs -- one earned -- over six innings in defeat.

Carlos Lee had two hits for Houston, which lost for the fourth time in five games.
