Cabrera went 3-for-4 and scored twice. He increased his hit total for May to 50, which tied Willie Mays' record for the most hits in May by a Giants player since the team relocated to San Francisco.

Joaquin Arias added an insurance run in the eighth on a fielder's choice with the bases loaded.

Bryan Shaw (1-3) took the loss for Arizona. Shaw allowed two runs on two hits in one inning of relief.
