Zambrano yelled at himself when he escaped a second-inning jam in which he walked three before striking out leadoff man Torres to get out of it unscathed.
Colvin's two-out single chased Giants starter Madison Bumgarner.
He had lost his previous two starts following a four-start winning streak, but Bumgarner didn't get a single run of support from the offense in 10 innings over those past two outings.
Chicago catcher Geovany Soto was a late lineup scratch by the Cubs because of a sprained right shoulder ligament. He missed his third straight game. Soto tested his shoulder, which bothers him only at the plate, during early batting practice and was fine but during later warmups experienced some discomfort.
Koyie Hill replaced Soto.
NOTES: Giants INF/OF Eugenio Velez began full baseball activities for the first time since being struck on the head July 25 by a foul ball in the dugout against Arizona, and is scheduled to begin playing in rehab games later this week. ... Zambrano is 5-1 in 10 career outings and nine starts vs. San Francisco. ... Giants LHP reliever Jeremy Affeldt, on the DL since July 24 with a strained left oblique muscle, will throw the third bullpen of his rehab on Tuesday. Affeldt will mix in curveballs this time. "I will know tomorrow where I'm at," he said. ... The Giants celebrated "Jerry Garcia Tribute Night" with a concert by Grateful Dead tribute band before the game. Members of the actual band sang the national anthem. Former Dead drummer Mickey Hart led fans in "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" played on kazoos during the seventh-inning stretch, trying for a place in the Guinness Book of World Records.
