SAN FRANCISCO — Mitch Haniger doubled with two outs in the eighth inning for the San Francisco Giants' first hit against the Chicago Cubs' Kyle Hendricks. Hendricks had faced one batter over the minimum and thrown 59 of 92 pitches for strikes before Haniger drove a fastball off the left-field wall on the eighth pitch of his at-bat. That ended the longest no-hit bid in the major leagues this season. Before Haniger's hit, the only Giants batter to reach base was Michael Conforto, who drew a five-pitch walk with one out in the second. Hendricks retired his next 19 batters before Haniger's hit.
