FITZGERALD HR MAKES ROOKIE HISTORY WITH A GIANTS FIRST SINCE BONDS

LOS ANGELES -- Perhaps nobody in baseball used the All-Star break downtime to their advantage like Giants rookie Tyler Fitzgerald, who now has a home run in five consecutive games for San Francisco.

Fitzgerald’s latest home run came in the second inning of Tuesday's game against the Dodgers, a drive to left field against another rookie in Los Angeles right-hander Landon Knack.
