SAN FRANCISCO (AP) --- Logan Webb pitched eight strong innings and extended his
scoreless streak to 19 as the San Francisco Giants beat the New York Mets 5-1
on Tuesday night.
Webb (3-1) won his third straight start, striking out four and scattering six
hits with a walk. The 27-year-old right-hander recorded 15 groundball outs.
Mike Yastrzemski, Thairo Estrada and Michael Conforto each had two hits for San
Francisco. Yastrzemski had three RBIs, and Estrada and LaMonte Wade Jr. drove
in the other runs.
Starling Marte had three hits for New York, which lost its third straight game
after a six-game winning streak.
Mets starter Luis Severino carried a no-hitter into the fifth inning before
Conforto led off with a bloop single to left field and Matt Chapman followed
with a sharp single to right.
After a flyout by Patrick Bailey, Estrada drove in the game's first run with an
RBI single to left. Chapman advanced to third and Estrada took second on Jeff
McNeil's throw home.
Yastrzemski's single to center scored two runs and the Giants led 3-0.
Severino (2-2) allowed three runs and five hits in six innings, striking out
five.
Estrada led off the seventh with a triple and scored on a single by
Yastrzemski. Wade added an RBI double to make it 5-0.

scoring a run on DJ Stewart's RBI fielder's choice.
Camilo Doval came in with two runners on and recorded the final two outs for
his fourth save.
San Francisco improved to 8-0 when scoring at least five runs.
