PHOENIX -- Matt Moore is enjoying being part of a playoff race.Moore struck out 11 in seven innings, Hunter Pence hit a key two-run double and the San Francisco Giants beat Zack Greinke and the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-3 on Sunday for a series sweep.The Giants pulled within three games of NL West-leading Los Angeles, which lost 3-0 at Miami. San Francisco leads the wild-card standings.Moore (10-11) gave up two runs and eight hits, striking out four straight batters at one point. The left-hander improved to 3-4 in eight starts since he was acquired in a trade with Tampa Bay.Its definitely normalized. I cant really say what it was but it felt different, Moore said of his transition to a contender. Maybe it was looking down and seeing orange on my shoes or looking and seeing (catcher Buster Poseys) glove. Right now, in the middle of this race, its exciting to wake up in the morning and know where we are.The Giants swept a road series from Arizona for the second time this season and sent the Diamondbacks to their sixth straight loss.Pence, who had eight hits in the series, came up with another clutch swing against Randall Delgado in the seventh, doubling in Angel Pagan and Brandon Crawford with two out to give the Giants a 5-2 lead.Quite a series, wasnt it? Weve seen him get on these runs before and its fun to watch, Giants manager Bruce Bochy said of Pence. Its inspirational baseball and gets the other guys going.Greinke (12-6) allowed three runs and six hits in six innings. His undoing was in the sixth, when he walked the bases loaded and gave up the tying and go-ahead runs.Greinke has lost back-to-back starts for the first time since early April.Denard Span, who went 30 at-bats without a hit until Saturday night, led off the game with a drive to right field. It was Spans fifth career leadoff home run and first this season.The Diamondbacks tied it in the second on Jake Lambs triple and a shallow single to center by Brandon Drury. Arizona went ahead 2-1 on Chris Owings double and a two-out, two-strike single from Welington Castillo in the fifth.Moore settled down after that.Seven solid innings allowed us to use the bullpen the way we wanted, Bochy said.San Francisco rallied in the sixth. With the bases full, Brandon Belt slapped an opposite-field single into left field, and then Joe Paniks grounder to first allowed Crawford to come home for a 3-2 Giants lead.I felt pretty good. Not perfect, but then the last inning, just missing by a little bit on just about every pitch, Greinke said. Getting behind and trying to make a good pitch, and just missing by little bit again. It ended up not being a good inning.Castillo homered off Sergio Romo in the eighth, but that was it for the Diamondbacks. Hunter Strickland got four outs for his third save of the season.REMEMBERING 9/11On the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, the Diamondbacks honored military members and first responders in a pregame ceremony that included a bagpipe ensembles music.TRAINERS ROOMGiants: RHP Derek Law (elbow) is still on track to come off the disabled list Tuesday or Wednesday, Bochy said. Hes throwing to hitters on Monday.Diamondbacks: LHP Andrew Chafins MRI revealed nothing more than swelling in his shoulder, so hell go six or seven days without throwing. Manager Chip Hale said hed like to get Chafin in for a game or two before the season ends but acknowledged it might not happen. At this point, we just want him to leave here with a healthy arm, Hale said. Im not counting on anything right now.UP NEXTGiants: RHP Jeff Samardzija (11-9) is 3-0 against the San Diego Padres this season. He faces them in the series opener on Monday night in San Francisco.Diamondbacks: RHP Shelby Miller (2-11) will be making his ninth career start against Colorado when Arizona opens a series at home against the Rockies on Monday.

When discussing high-potent offenses in the NFL, no one will ever bring up the 2016 Buffalo Bills or the Los Angeles Rams. But the two teams that will be facing off in the Los Angeles Coliseum this Sunday are playing very good defense and winning football games.The Bills, flying across the country for the first of three West-Coast visits, enter the game on a two-game winning streak. Those two wins came against many pundits picks for a Super Bowl LI matchup, the Arizona Cardinals and the New England Patriots.The Rams are tied for the lead of the NFC West with the Seattle Seahawks at 3-1 but hold a victory over their division rival. Los Angeles has won three straight games, and though none of the victories were pretty, they all count as wins.Said Rams quarterback Case Keenum, I think good teams win the close games. I think that is this league. If you go across the board, every week I think most games, if not all of them, are one- or two-possession games. Some may be determined by a field goal or two.You see time and time again that the good teams win those games. They find a way to do it. It doesnt matter how, it matters how many at the end of the day. For us to find a way to get it done is a step in the right direction.Statistically, Los Angeles is not a good team on offense.The Rams are 30th overall in passing and own the worst overall offense in the NFL. They average 269 yards a game which is 21.5 yards behind the 31st worst team, the Minnesota Vikings who average 290.5 yards a game.The Bills are not much better.Buffalo has the 31st ranked passing attack in the NFL and ranks 28th in overall offense. The Bills average 307 yards of offense per contest. Where the Bills offense separates itself from the Rams offense is the run game. The Bills are seventh in rushing in the NFL with 123.2 yards a game. The Rams, with ballyhooed runner Todd Gurley, are 30th with 76.8 yards averaged on the ground.This contest will be decided by the defenses and special teams play. Buffalo is coming off a shutout of the Patriots and the Rams stifling defense held a high tempo Arizona Cardinals offense to 13 points in the WWeek 4 win.dddddddddddde started off 2-1, but to be 3-1, I think it puts a different light on the team. I think that was great for us as an organization and a team, Rams linebacker Mark Barron said.The play of Barron and fellow linebacker Alec Ogletree is one of the reasons Los Angeles has their current record. Barron has 29 tackles with seven passes defensed and two interceptions. Ogletree, the new leader of the defense, leads the team with 36 total tackles.The defensive front, led by Pro Bowl defensive tackle Aaron Donald, has consistently put pressure on the quarterback the last three weeks. This week, that unit will need to help contain the Bills ground attack. Running back LeSean McCoy is 10th in the NFL in rushing with 297 yards rushing. The former Philadelphia Eagle has a 4.4 yard average and three rushing scores on the young season.Conversely, a linebacker for the Bills has stepped up his game as well and been the catalyst to the upswing in Buffalos defense. Linebacker Zach Brown became the starter when rookie Reggie Ragland blew out his knee in training camp. After four weeks of the 2016 season, Brown leads the NFL with 52 tackles and he had an 18-tackle performance against the Patriots to go along with two forced fumbles and a sack.Its a great win. My D-Line, I give them my hats off. They kept the offensive line off us. Me and Preston (Brown) were just free, running around making tackles, said Zach Brown of his epic game in New England. This was Zach Browns third straight double-digit tackle game.The Bills defense is hoping to be the reason the Rams rushing attack continues to struggle. Gurley, the much maligned runner for the Rams, only has 216 rushing yards on the season. His 2.6 yard average is the worst in the NFL for any player with over 33 attempts. Gurley has rushed the football the fourth most with 82 attempts. The Bills defense held New England running back LeGarrette Blount, who came into the Week 4 game as the NFLs leading rusher, to only 54 yards. ' ' '
