CHICAGO -- The feeling in the Giants clubhouse these days is that theyll always find a way to win. And San Francisco has been especially good at doing just that on the road. Angel Pagan had a tiebreaking single in the ninth Sunday as the Giants rallied to a 7-5 win over the Cubs, completing a 5-1 road trip to Houston and Chicago. Since the All-Star break, the NL West leaders are 19-6 away from home. "Weve been playing very well on the road," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said. "These were hard-fought games that could have gone either way. Its all about trying to get a series. If you do that, youll have a decent year." The Giants are more than decent right now. Theyre 76-58, a season-best 18 games over .500 after winning 12 of their last 16. And they have a favourable schedule in the final month. San Francisco plays the second-place Dodgers six more times, but L.A. is the only team left on the Giants slate that currently has a winning record. "Theres a feeling in the dugout, that even when things arent going right, we still feel like were in the game," said Giants starter Matt Cain, who lasted only five innings Sunday, matching his shortest outing of the season. "Ive been on teams before where youre down runs and you dont feel like youre in it anymore. This team feels like no matter what the score is, theyre gonna keep going out and find ways to score runs. Its a good feeling to have because you never feel like youre out of the game." Santiago Casilla (6-5) pitched an inning to get the victory Sunday and Javier Lopez got the final two outs for his sixth save in eight chances. San Francisco carried a 3-1 lead into the fifth but Darwin Barney scored on right fielder Hunter Pences error and Alfonso Soriano hit a three-run drive off Cain for his 25th homer, putting the Cubs ahead 5-3. Brandon Belt tripled in Xavier Nady in the sixth and scored the tying run on Manuel Corpas wild pitch. Then the Giants took advantage of a bout of wildness by Carlos Marmol to grab the lead in the ninth. Nady led off with a four-pitch walk and pinch-runner Gregor Blanco stole second with one out. Brandon Crawford then walked and Pagan followed with a single to centre. Marco Scutaro added another RBI single to give the Giants a two-run cushion. "I got up in the right situation to put the team on top, and I got it done," said Pagan, who once played for the Cubs, as did Nady. "For us, were trying to grind at-bats the best we can and make the at-bat as tough as possible," Pagan added. Marmol (2-3) was 1-0 with a 1.08 ERA in his previous 17 appearances. "Just a bad day. Youre not going to be perfect all year long," said Marmol, who lost the closers job earlier this season and then got it back. The Cubs could be on their way to 100 losses as they try to mix in young players and build for a future that looks a long way off. Manager Dale Sveum said he hopes his players take notice of how the Giants play the game. "Thats a championship-type baseball team that we have to somehow put together, too," he said. Cain was charged with five runs and six hits. The ace right-hander was 3-0 with a 1.82 ERA in his last four starts. Chicago starter Travis Wood surrendered seven hits and four runs -- two earned -- in 5 2-3 innings. The left-hander is 0-8 with a 6.33 ERA in his last 10 starts. San Francisco got three in the third, aided by an error on first baseman Anthony Rizzo, who threw wide to first on Cains sacrifice bunt, putting runners at first and second. Pagan, Pablo Sandoval and Buster Posey followed with RBI singles. Cain missed Barneys comebacker to start the bottom half of the inning. Barney, credited with an infield single, moved up on Woods sacrifice and scored on David DeJesus sharp single to make it 3-1. And the Cubs practically repeated that sequence for their second run in the fifth when Barney singled, advanced on Woods sacrifice and scored when Pence bobbled DeJesus single. Luis Valbuena then walked and after a fielders choice, Soriano drove a pitch to deep left centre. Soriano now has nine seasons with at least 25 homers. NOTES: Soriano leaped into the ivy to catch Cains long fly ball in the fourth. ...Bochy said it might help Pablo Sandoval to drop a few pounds. "Its an ongoing issue, obviously. Something hes been battling. He showed last year that hes a better hitter when his weight is down," Bochy said. "Wed like to get him down a little bit, but its hard in September with the focus. This winter he needs to get back on the program he had a few years ago." cheap jerseys . -- The Kootenay Ice exploded for five goals in a huge second period in their Western Hockey League final game against Portland. wholesale nfl jerseys .

"Ride of the day.. No, make that ride of the millennium, goes to GreenEDGEs Svein Tuft. 200km ALONE controlling the peloton! Respect," said Cavendish, via Twitter. Tuft took a few minutes with his team after the stage to talk about what it was like to put in such a mammoth ride. "I felt good today, so the plan was to put my face in the wind," said Tuft, who was the lead rider in the peloton from about the 10km mark. "Its just what happened." By the time he relinquished the lead, Tuft said "it was a little blurry at that point," and he dropped back to cross the finish well back from the lead. Having given his team a solid effort, teammate Matthew Goss retained the leaders jersey. At the finish, the peloton had held an average speed of over 35km/h for the full 230km stage. The effort to keep the pace at that level saw Tuft burn through an estimated 6500 calories – roughly equivalent to three days of suggested food consumption for an average person. & "You can never put in that much, but you can really try.dddddddddddd I tried pretty good," said Tuft. "Ill hope for a rest day tomorrow." Team GreenEDGE has enjoyed an excellent start to the Tirreno Adriatico, winning the team time trial on the opening day, and Goss retaining the lead. Although it is the first year on the World Tour for the team, they have already shown a form that indicates they could be regular contenders in the UCI WorldTour. "It was really important for GreenEDGE," said Tuft of the team time trial performance. "No matter what the guys would have been happy no matter where we placed because we did a perfect ride. The result was awesome because we really smashed it. In team time trials, that doesnt happen so often. Its a good example of the strength we have here. "Everyone gets along so easy, so when were making those tricky decisions of how to roll in the team time trial, its not a problem." Tuft in back on the UCI WorldTour with Australian team, GreenEDGE Cycling, after spending a season with the Canadian continental team, SpiderTech. He is the reigning Canadian road cycling and time trial champion. The Tirreno Adriatico finishes on Tuesday. cheap nfl jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
