Belt’s blasts helped San Francisco set a franchise mark for homers in a season, and the Giants beat the Colorado Rockies 7-2 on Saturday night to extend their lead in the NL West. Belt hit a solo homer in the first inning and a three-run shot in the fifth off Jon Gray. His second drive to right field was the team’s 236th homer of the season, surpassing the 235 hit by the 2001 club. SAN FRAN DOMINANCEThe Giants improved to 14-4 against Colorado, their most wins in a season over the Rockies. These signs were more obvious: A giant “33” etched into the outfield grass at Coors Field, with “33” also stenciled along the baselines.
