The Giants' five slams in 17 games is the shortest span in team history; they hit five over 23 games from April 14 to May 10, 1970.
Jackson Chourio homered twice for Milwaukee and David Hamilton once.
Schmitt set his career with his 13th homer with his drive on a fastball from Coleman Crow (0-1), who allowed six runs and nine hits in 2 1/3 inning. Crow, whose ERA rose from 3.14 to 5.94, had not allowed more than two earned runs in each of his three previous major league starts.

Caleb Kilian entered after Wilkin Ramos' bases-loaded walk with no outs in the ninth, struck out Andrew Vaughn, got Sal Frelick to ground into a forceout at second, gave up Luis Rengifo's RBI single, then retired David Hamilton on a flyout to the center-field warning track for his fourth save.
