Giants 5, Pirates 2
PITTSBURGH — Ryan Vogelsong won while making his first start in almost seven years, pitching effectively into the sixth against his former team and leading the Giants. In his third appearance in the majors since 2006, Vogelsong, 33, tied a career high with eight strikeouts. "It was a sense of accomplishment for me before the first pitch had even started," he said.
