Giants at the plate: Non-roster invitee Derin McMains hit a pinch-hit homer in the seventh inning, giving him three homers in his first four at-bats with five RBIs. Outfielder Nate Schierholtz smashed a top-of-the-berm homer to right field in the eighth, highlighting a three-run rally that also featured an RBI double by Fred Lewis.
Mariners at the plate: Shortstop Matt Tuiasosopo had a two-run double in the first inning.
Giants on the mound: Starter Jason Schmidt gave up the two-bagger to Tuiasosopo but settled down and struck out the side in the second frame. Matt Kinney (1-0) picked up the win in relief.
Mariners on the mound: Starter Jamie Moyer had a good outing, giving up only one hit over three innings while striking out four. The losing pitcher was Jeff Harris.

Up next: Giants' No. 2 starter Matt Morris will oppose the Angels in Tempe at 12:05 p.m. PT on Thursday. It marks his first spring game following an earlier exhibition outing against Team USA. The Mariners travel to Tucson to face the White Sox, as RHP Jesse Foppert (0-0) takes the hill.
