SAN FRANCISCO -- Catcher Steven Vogt hit two triples and left fielder Mike Yastrzemski made a nifty catch for the final out to help the San Francisco Giants beat the Milwaukee Brewers 8-7 on Saturday.
The Giants rallied from a 5-1 deficit for their fourth consecutive victory.
Christian Yelich hit his major league-leading 26th home run for the Brewers, who have lost three of four after a four-game winning streak.
Yelich connected for a solo drive with two outs in the ninth and Ryan Braun followed with a single for his third hit. Yasmani Grandal then hit a drive to left-center field, but Yastrzemski rushed over and in for a diving grab to end it.
Will Smith wound up with his 18th save in 18 tries. Smith pitched for the fourth time in five days.
Vogt became the first Giants catcher to triple twice in a game since Steve Nicosia did it on July 18, 1984. Vogt hadn't hit a triple since May 4, 2017.
Vogt and Brandon Crawford, who doubled twice, each had three hits. Kevin Pillar had two hits and drove in two runs.
The Giants scored twice in the seventh off Junior Guerra (2-1) for a 7-6 lead. Vogt tripled with one out, Pillar hit an RBI single and Crawford doubled home the go-ahead run.
Giants reliever Trevor Gott (3-0) pitched an inning in which he gave up one run for the victory.
