Recap: San Francisco vs. Los Angeles

Bengie Molina collected a pair of hits including an RBI double, as San Francisco topped Los Angeles, 3-1, in an exhibition contest from AT&T Park.

Fred Lewis and Aaron Rowand also knocked in runs for the Giants, who start their 2009 regular-season slate on Tuesday hosting Milwaukee.

Jonathan Sanchez got the win by allowing six hits and a run over 4 2/3 innings. He fanned six and walked three.

James Loney drove in the only run with a 2-for-2 effort for the Dodgers, who begin the regular season on Monday at San Diego.

James McDonald was charged with six hits and three runs over four frames in the loss. The 24-year-old right-hander struck out five, walking two and will open the season as LA's No. 5 starter with just four prior career MLB appearances to his resume.

Hiroki Kuroda will oppose Padres ace Jake Peavy in LA's opener while Tim Lincecum will take the ball for San Francisco against the Brewers' Jeff Suppan.
