SAN FRANCISCO — Nick Ahmed and Tyler Fitzgerald had three hits apiece and Jordan Hicks allowed one run in six innings as the San Francisco Giants avoided a three-game series sweep with a 7-1 win over the Washington Nationals. Hicks has allowed one earned run or less in each of his first three starts this season after signing a $44 million, four-year contract with San Francisco. The 27-year-old right-hander allowed four hits and had two strikeouts. Ahmed drove in two runs and scored three times, while Fitzgerald stole two bases and scored twice. Joey Gallo homered for Washington, his third of the season.
