No relief needed for Bucs
Cain pays for sloppy start By Chris Haft / MLB.com
Matt Cain nearly got out of the first inning despite loading the bases with one out, but the two-run double he gave up an out later proved to be too much for the Giants to overcome. Cain finished with five stellar innings in taking his 13th loss of the year.

Maholm has tidy outing By Jenifer Langosch / MLB.com
Paul Maholm followed up Tom Gorzelanny's shutout with a complete game of his own, mowing through the Giants in under two hours. He got all the support he needed from Jose Castillo's two-run double, but Maholm helped out by scoring an insurance run after hitting his first career double.
