Giants nip the Dodgers 3-2.

San Francisco rides a stellar start from Kirk Rueter and big hits by a couple old veterans. Rueter allows just 4 hits, 2 walks and 1 unearned run in 7 2/3 innings.

Tied 1-1 after Brian Jordan's RBI double in the top of the 6th, the Giants get big contributions from 2 of their oldest players. After Odalis Perez retires the 1st 2 batters in the bottom of the 6th, Jose Cruz, Jr. walks and then Benito Santiago follows with a double. Andres Galarraga singles home both to break the tie.

Santiago finishes 3-for-3 with a walk.
