San Francisco grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Kingman, who is tied for 2nd in the NL in home runs with 23, hit a 3-run home run off the Cubs LHP Larry Gura. His 23rd home run of the season put the Giants out in front, 5-2.

"Winning the game is always the first objective," Kingman said.
