SAN FRANCISCO-With a huge opportunity to catch the rival Los Angeles Dodgers atop the National League Western Division, but instead the San Francisco Giants laid an egg.

The Dodgers scored eight runs in the first two innings, and then added one in the third and two more in the fourth on their way to a huge 17-0 victory over the Giants before 41,533, the 322nd consecutive regular season sellout at AT&TPark.

By scoring the 17 runs on the evening, the Dodgers eclipsed their season high of 12 that was accomplished on May 31 in a 12-2 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates at Dodger Stadium.

The 17 runs scored by the Dodgers, breaks the opponent record for most runs in a game at AT&T Park, breaking the record of 16 that was set by the Florida Marlins on July 23, 2005.

With the victory, the Dodgers moved back to two games ahead of the Giants in the fight for the National League Western Division championship.

Tim Hudson lasted just one inning, the shortest outing of his 16-year major league career.

On April 15, 2000, while a member of the Oakland Athletics, Hudson went one and two-thirds innings against the Boston Red Sox at FenwayPark.

After Dee Gordon struck out to begin the game, the wheels began to roll for the Dodgers, as Yasiel Puig doubled, then after an Adrian Gonzalez groundout for the second out, Matt Kemp then doubled in Puig, and then Hanley Ramirez doubled in Kemp.

Carl Crawford then singled in Ramirez, then former Giants infielder Juan Urine singled and then A.J. Ellis singled in Crawford for the fourth and final run of the inning and Dodgers starter Zack Greinke struck out to end the inning.

Gordon and Puig led off the second inning with back-to-back singles, and Bruce Bochy saw enough and brought Tim Lincecum on to replace Hudson.

In all, Hudson went one inning, allowing six runs on eight hits, not walking a batter and striking out two.

Lincecum lasted three innings, allowing five runs on seven hits, before Michael Kickham took to the AT&TPark mound.

Uribe added a little punch in the top of the fourth inning, as he hit his ninth home run of the season that landed in the left field bleachers.

Greinke helped out his own cause, as he hit his first home run of the season off of Kickham in the top of the sixth inning.

The right-hander went six innings, allowing zero runs on four hits, walking zero and striking out five on his way to his 15th win of the season.

With the Dodgers leading 13-0 in the top of the sixth inning, Carl Crawford hit a ball that Matt Duffy snared and threw to first base; however Crawford was called out.

Don Mattingly challenged the call, and the call was reversed after a 36 second review, which brought Bochy out of the dugout to make a very special call to the bullpen.

Bochy called on his son Brett to make his major league debut against Uribe, who walked to force in a run.

After the walk to Uribe, Bochy was able to get A.J. Ellis to popout to Travis Ishikawa at first base to end the inning.

Scott Van Slyke got Bochy for a long home run in the top of the seventh inning.

In one inning of work, Bochy allowed two runs on one hit, walking one and striking out one in his major league debut.
