Pence’s walkoff double carries Giants past Padres

Hunter Pence connected on his second career walk-off hit against San Diego Padres closer Brad Hand, a bases-loaded, two-run double in the bottom of the 11th inning, that enabled the San Francisco Giants to rally for a 3-2 victory on Sunday afternoon. The Giants responded after Manuel Margot celebrated a return to the leadoff spot by walking and scoring the go-ahead run on a two-out single by Cory Spangenberg in the top off the 11th, giving the Padres a 2-1 lead. Seeking his 22nd save of the season, Hand (1-4) struck out Brandon Belt to start the 12th before Andrew McCutchen laced a double.
