Jonathan Sanchez pitched three-hit ball over seven innings and Juan Uribe homered as the San Francisco Giants blanked the host Los Angeles Dodgers 3-0 on Sunday night.

Sanchez (10-8) struck out nine and walked one while beating the Dodgers for the first time in six career decisions to help the Giants move within one game of first-place San Diego in the National League West.

Sergio Romo struck out two during a perfect eighth and Brian Wilson struck out two in the ninth while recording his 40th save.

San Francisco scored its first run in the second when Sandoval hit a sacrifice fly to plate Buster Posey.
