SAN FRANCISCO — Andrew McCutchen snapped out of a prolonged slump with five hits in six at-bats Saturday night. McCutchen hit a three-run homer to cap a 12-pitch at-bat against reliever Wilmer Font, giving him a career-high six hits and the San Francisco Giants a 7-5 victory over Los Angeles on Saturday night. The 2013 NL MVP got a hearty ovation from Giants fans for the walk-off blast, his first big moment with San Francisco since being acquired from Pittsburgh in an off-season blockbuster. The Dodgers had taken a 5-4 lead in the top of the 14th when Logan Forsythe singled in Yasiel Puig. STARTING OFFHill beat the Giants on opening day in Los Angeles but wasn’t as fortunate in San Francisco.
