SAN FRANCISCO -- The San Francisco Giants got the victory they desperately needed.Madison Bumgarner snapped a five-start winless streak with seven shutout innings, Denard Span had four RBI and the Giants beat the Baltimore Orioles 6-2 on Saturday night.The victory kept the Giants alone atop the NL West, a full game ahead of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who beat Pittsburgh 8-4.The Giants were 6 1/2 games up at the All-Star break, but they entered Saturday 8-17 since, worst in the majors.We needed a win tonight, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. Madison, with what hes accomplished here and the big games that hes pitched, just gives the team a sense of confidence when hes out there.Bumgarner (11-7) had lost five of his previous seven decisions. He allowed three hits, struck out eight and walked three.I made pitches and didnt give in, things just went our way thats all really you can say, Bumgarner said.The Orioles fell out of first place, a half-game behind Toronto, which beat Houston 4-2.Span sparked the Giants with two-run singles in the second and sixth innings. Both came with two outs.It doesnt get much bigger than that, Bochy said. Twice you come up with men on second and third and get hits. ... Timely hitting is what wins ballgames for you and of course good pitching, and Bum threw a beautiful game.Kevin Gausman (3-10), who hasnt won on the road this season, lasted just four innings. He struck out nine batters and walked six, becoming the first pitcher in the majors to do so since 2013.I thought I threw a lot of strikes, Gausman said. The most frustrating thing was on the other side (they were) getting those pitches.Sometimes borderline pitches are strikes, sometime theyre balls, Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. He worked a lot down in the zone and he wasnt getting the bottom of the zone. ... Anytime you walk six, theres a lot more to it than just missing. He wasnt the only one.Gausman fell to 0-9 on the road this season and is 0-16 in his last 25 road starts going back to Aug. 22, 2014.Santiago Casilla faced one batter to get his 27th save.Brandon Belt broke the game open in the bottom of the seventh with a two-run homer -- his 14th -- off Ubaldo Jimenez.Joe Panik had three hits, including two ground-rule doubles, and scored two runs.It was definitely good to get (Bumgarner) a few runs early and then tack on at the end, Panik said. Hes been so good for us, he deserves some run support.He pitched his tail off for us tonight, so definitely a good win all the way around.SPITTING IMAGEThe Giants unveiled a nine-foot bronze statue of Hall of Fame pitcher Gaylord Perry.
