SAN FRANCISCO-Brandon Belt gave the San Francisco Giants a huge win with just one swing of the bat.

Belt hit a two-run home run off of Julio Urias in the bottom of the sixth inning, as the Giants defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 2-1 before a crowd of 41,583, the 440th consecutive sellout at AT&T Park. With the victory, the Giants stretch their lead over the Dodgers to five games.

Just prior to the Belt home run off of Urias, Joe Panik walked to setup the battle with Belt and a on a 1-1 pitch, Belt took the Urias offering and put it into the right field bleachers for his eighth home run of the season.

That would be the runs that Jake Peavy would need, as he went six innings, scattering just four hits, while walking one and striking out three and saw his record on the season improve to 3-6.

This was the 15th time that Peavy won against the Dodgers, and with the victory, he is now 15-3 all-time against the Dodgers. His .833 winning percentage is highest by any pitcher with at least 15 decisions against them. Peavy breaks a tie with Jack Chesbro, who pitched for the Pittsburgh Pirates against the then Brooklyn Dodgers from 1899-1902, this according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

Peavy earned his 150th victory, becoming just the sixth active pitcher in the Major Leagues with 150 or more wins.

Urias, who at just 19 years old is still looking for that elusive first win of his short major league career. In 5.1 innings of work, he gave up two runs on four hits, walking just one and striking out seven.

The left-hander was the first teenager to start in a Giants-Dodgers game since Mike McCormick did so at age 19 for the Giants against the Dodgers at Seals Stadium in 1958. Urias was the first Dodgers pitcher to start as a teenager against the Giants since Don Drysdale did so at the Polo Grounds also age of 19 in 1956. Unlike Urias, who lost his decision, both McCormick and Drysdale won their decisions, this according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

Former Palo Alto High School Star Joc Pederson drove in the only run for the Dodgers in the top of the seventh inning, as he hit his ninth home run of the season. Pederson’s home run landed in San Francisco Bay, the 108th “Splash Hit,” since the park opened back in 2000 and the 39th by an opponent. It was the second “Splash Hit” of the week, as Brandon Belt hit one against the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday night. Pederson is the second opponent to do it this season, as Ben Zobrist did it on May 20 for the Chicago Cubs.

Entering the game, Chase Utley was an abysmal 1-for-17 in his career against Peavy, but that all changed, as Utley went 3-for-3.

Matt Duffy extended his hitting streak at home up to 12 games, and is hitting .356 (16-for-45) during the streak.

This was the Dodgers fifth consecutive one-run decision, their longest streak since the 2010 season (Elias Sports Bureau) and are currently 2-3 during the streak.

Justin Turner was ejected by home plate umpire Mike Muchlinski as the top of the eighth inning came to a close after Turner struck out versus Cory Gearrin. It was the second career ejection for Turner, with his only other ejection coming on May 31, 2015 against the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium.

Once again, Bruce Bochy went deep into his bullpen, as he used Hunter Strickland, George Kontos, Josh Osich, Gearrin, Javier Lopez and Santiago Casilla.

The six relievers combined for one run and two hits in the final three innings of work, and Casilla picked up his 13th save of the season.
