Giants rally to beat Carrasco, Indians

Andres Torres scored the deciding run from third base on Aubrey Huff's long foul out in the sixth inning, and the San Francisco Giants overcame another erratic start by pitcher Jonathan Sanchez to beat the Cleveland Indians 4-3 on Friday night.

Torres also homered and singled twice to help the Giants rally from three runs down and win their major league-leading 16th one-run game at home. San Francisco has won three straight following a season-high five-game losing streak.

The Giants managed only six hits but took advantage of two errors by Cleveland first baseman Carlos Santana to score three unearned runs off starter Carlos Carrasco.

It was a tough night all around for the Indians, who lost outfielder Shin-Soo Choo to a possible hand injury after he was hit by a pitch from Sanchez in the fourth.
