The Giants proved that three men were better than one while beating the Phillies, 8-3. Greg Luzinski was the big man for the Phillies with a homer, double and two singles, driving in all their runs. The Giants got more production from Chris Speier, Gary Thomasson and Willie Montanez, who accounted for seven RBIs among them.

Thomasson doubled in the first inning and, after a walk and a bunt, scored on a sacrifice fly by Speier. Speier homered for one of the Giants' two runs in the third. Then in the fourth, Mike Sadek and Mike Caldwell singled and Thomasson homered to take the game out of the Phillies' reach. Montanez accounted for the last two runs, driving them across with a single in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
