    Sanchez, LaRoche power Pirates over Giants

    <h3>PITTSBURGH 13, SAN FRANCISCO 3</h3>By Ryan Leong
    PA SportsTicker Contributing Writer


    SAN FRANCISCO (Ticker) - Even without Barry Bonds in the lineupSaturday, there was a splash in McCovey Cove. But it was byAdam LaRoche of the Pittsburgh Pirates.


    Freddy Sanchez and LaRoche hit back-to-back home runs in afive-run fourth inning as the Pirates knocked off the SanFrancisco Giants, 13-3, on Saturday afternoon.


    Finishing 4-for-5 with five RBI, Sanchez now has knocked inseven runs in the first two games of the series.


    LaRoche also homered in Friday night's win as the Pirates wonconsecutive games for only the second time since the All-Starbreak.


    Giants rookie Tim Lincecum was lights-out the first time throughthe Pirates' order but got hit hard in the fourth whenPittsburgh sent nine men to bat.


    Lincecum (6-3) lasted six innings, was charged with six earnedruns on nine hits and lost for the first time since June 19,snapping a four-game winning streak.


    Tony Armas (2-3) pitched six innings for his second straightwin, allowing a solo home run to Randy Winn and an RBI single byRyan Klesko.


    Pirates reliever Shawn Chacon inherited a bases-loaded situationin the seventh and walked in a run but the Giants scored onlytwo runs, even though they sent eight men to the plate, cuttingthe deficit to 7-3.


    They got no closer as the Pirates pushed across six runs in theninth, highlighted by Sanchez's two-run double and LaRoche'stwo-RBI base hit.


    Ryan Doumit had two hits and is 5-for-9 through the first twogames of the series. LaRoche also had two hits and is 4-for-9with five RBI in the series.


    Although the Giants have lost three straight and fell aseason-high 17 games below .500, they sold out for the 18thconsecutive time dating to June 30.
