Jung Hoo Lee belted a two-run homer in the third inning and added an RBI single during a nine-run 11th, lifting the visiting San Francisco Giants to a 14-5 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday.

Matt Chapman added a two-run single in the 11th to join Lee with a three-hit performance. Heliot Ramos had four hits, two RBIs and two runs for the Giants, who squandered a two-run lead in the ninth inning.

San Francisco, however, ignited the fireworks in the 11th.

Patrick Bailey’s single to center off Ryan Pressly (2-2) plated Christian Koss, and Brett Wisely’s bunt allowed Ramos to give San Francisco a 7-5 lead. Pressly walked his next batter before hitting Willy Adames with a pitch to drive in another run.

Singles by Lee, Chapman and Wilmer Flores extended the Giants’ advantage to 12-5. Ramos’ RBI double and Bailey’s sacrifice fly capped the scoring against Pressly, who allowed nine runs (eight earned) on five hits without getting an out.

Erik Miller (2-0), who allowed Kyle Tucker’s game-tying RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning, permitted one hit in 1 1/3 scoreless innings.

The Giants erupted for 16 hits en route to their fourth win in five games.

Signed to a one-year, $15 million contract, Justin Verlander allowed just three runs on five hits in five innings and was in line to pick up his first win of the season. Ryan Walker, however, issued two walks and an RBI single to Justin Turner in the ninth before Miller surrendered an RBI single to Tucker.

Chicago’s Miguel Amaya launched a two-run homer in the third inning and Jon Berti had an RBI single in the fifth.

San Francisco scratched in a pair of runs in the second inning before doubling the advantage in the third, courtesy of Lee depositing a 2-1 fastball from Colin Rea over the wall in right field. Lee’s homer was his fourth of the season and first since he went deep on two occasions against the New York Yankees on April 13.

Chicago halved the deficit on Amaya’s third homer of the season before the teams traded runs.
