PHILADELPHIA -- Denard Span delivered one of the Giants biggest hits this season.Span homered leading off the 10th inning, and San Francisco beat the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2 Thursday for just its fifth win in 14 games since the All-Star break.We needed this win more than ever, Span said.San Francisco, which lost the first two games of the series, has not been swept by Philadelphia in 10 years.Id say thats one of our bigger hits, manager Bruch Bochy said. It couldnt have come at a better time. To get a win here does a lot for the psyche and morale of the ballclub.Matt Moore made his first start for the NL West leader following his acquisition Monday from Tampa Bay. He allowed two runs and three hits in six innings and walked six -- matching his major league high.It started with Matt, Bochy said. He did a terrific job, just a great effort on his part.Moore gave up one hit through five innings and took a 2-1 lead into the sixth, when Freddy Galvis grounded into a forceout with the bases loaded. Moore then threw a called third strike past pinch-hitter Taylor Featherston.I was maybe a tad bit geared up, he said. I just kind of calmed down and got back to simple things.Span led off the 10th by sending a 2-2, 95 mph fastball from Severino Gonzalez (0-2) just inside the right-field foul pole, his third hit of the game.I was just trying to protect, he said. I felt good this series and want to build off this.Sergio Romo (1-0) earned the win without getting an out. Cesar Hernandez was caught stealing for the final out of the ninth when he overslid the base while Romo was facing his first batter.We were disappointed in that, Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said. He stole that base easily and slid past the bag and weve addressed that at length with him because he has a tendency to do that.Santiago Casilla pitched a 1-2-3 10th for his 25th save in 30 chances.Philadelphia starter Vince Velasquez gave up two runs and three hits in five innings.Brandon Crawford hit an RBI single in the first, but Aaron Altherrs run-scoring double tied the score in the bottom half. Span hit a sacrifice fly in the fifth.San Francisco put runners on first and second with no outs in the eighth. Brett Oberholtzer got three straight outs, the last on Altherrs diving catch on Brandon Belts sinking liner to center.TRAINERS ROOMPhillies: Velasquez called for a trainer in the fifth inning after he developed a blister on the middle finger of his pitching hand. The right-hander was able to pitch through the fifth, but Mackanin didnt let him go back for the sixth due to the blister.I didnt want to get him into a situation where he might miss his next start, Mackanin said. It wasnt a bad blister, but you could see it developing.EASY WINRomo is the first pitcher since 2009 to earn a victory without officially facing a batter. Colorados Alan Embree last accomplished the feat, on July 7, 2009. The previous Giants pitcher to do it was Tyler Walker on Sept. 17, 2005 against the Dodgers.WALK THIS WAYPhiladelphias Tommy Joseph walked a career-high three times. He had just 11 walks in 203 at-bats this season entering Thursday.NEXT MAN UPMackanin said 22-year-old right-hander Jake Thompson will make his first big league start Saturday at San Diego. Taken by Detroit in the second round of the 2012 amateur draft, Thompson was acquired by the Phillies last season as part of the deal that sent left-hander Cole Hamels to Texas.UP NEXTGiants: RHP Jeff Samardzija (9-7, 4.30) takes the mound for San Francisco when the Giants open a three-game series at NL East-leading Washington on Friday night.Phillies: Philadelphia begins a six-game trip on Friday night in San Diego when RHP Jeremy Hellickson (8-7, 3.70) faces LHP Christian Friedrich (4-6, 4.72).

Va. -- Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby said expansion candidates were disappointed by the leagues decision to remain at 10 members but didnt question the integrity of the process.Bowlsby called the presidents and chancellors of the 11 schools being considered by the Big 12 on Monday afternoon after the leagues board meeting adjourned in Grapevine, Texas.I didnt have anybody tell me that they thought it had been a waste of time, Bowlsby told ESPN.com Saturday before the TCU-West Virginia game. They thought they were treated respectfully, and that was certainly my aspiration. I wanted to keep them informed. I wanted to feel like they had the opportunity to put their best foot forward.I guess you wouldnt call them joyous conversations, but everyone was complimentary in the manner in which they were treated.Bowlsby and Oklahoma president David Boren, chairman of the Big 12s board, announced Monday afternoon that the decision not to expand was unanimous. But sources told ESPNs Brett McMurphy that several Big 12 schools that favored expansion agreed to form a united front after it became clear that no candidate would receive eight of 10 votes necessary to enter the conference.After the Big 12 announced in July it would be considering candidates for expansion, 19 schools expressed interest before the list was trimmed to 11, which made presentations to Bowlsby in Texas. Bowlsby said the process had to be public and transparent because the Big 12 wasnt actively seeking candidates but instead accepting interest from the ooutside.ddddddddddddIf anything, there was a feeling among candidate institutions that, If that institution is going to get involved, then why not us? Bowlsby said. So we might have ended up with a few more options than I might have originally expected.The Big 12 presidents didnt vote on individual expansion candidates Monday. The meeting adjourned earlier than many expected, but Bowlsby said he had briefed the presidents enough before and that six hours of discussion was enough to reach a decision.There were a number of presidents and chancellors who wanted to hear the discussion in the room, Bowlsby said. I thought that there was some possibility that we would add [members], but Im not shocked that it came out the way that it did, either.Despite the 15-month process, which featured several contradictory statements from Boren, Bowlsby said the leagues presidents are more committed to the leagues long-term future than ever. The Big 12 in June announced record revenue distributions, but Bowlsby said the leagues long-term viability hinges on winning.Were going to do everything we can to keep pace, Bowlsby said, but Im not sure anybodys drawn a direct correlation between how much you spend and how much success you have. Were going to try to use our resources as thoughtfully as we can, and we have a lot of good coaches and a lot of good athletes. We just need to play at the highest levels. And we have. ' ' '
