Victim of the blast was right hander Bob Porkey who de parted in the third inning with his seventh loss against five wins. The Giants, scoring in all but three innings, made it easy for Jones to register his sixth win against five losses. An error by shortstop Andre Rogers in the third inning paved the way for three un earned Red runs and spoiled Jones's bid for a shutout.
