SF Giants’ Tyler Fitzgerald continues scorching stretch with two homers in big win
SAN FRANCISCO — Not even a frigid San Francisco night could cool down Tyler Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald stayed scorching hot as enjoyed the first multi-homer game of his career, sending two home runs into the San Francisco night and driving in a career-high four RBIs. With Jorge Soler and Heliot Ramos also homering and Kyle Harrison matching his career-high of 11 strikeouts, the Giants handily defeated the Rockies, 11-4, at Oracle Park. With two homers on the night, Fitzgerald becomes the first Giant to have seven home runs in his last eight games since Barry Bonds did so in April 2004. Fitzgerald achieved the feat just several days after he became the first rookie in franchise history to homer in five straight games, as well as the first Giant since, again, Bonds. Hot streaks of this nature aren’t entirely new to Fitzgerald. This past May, Fitzgerald hit six home runs in a five-game stretch with Triple-A Sacramento. He had five homers in six games with Double-A Richmond in July 2022, as well as four home runs in five games with High-A Eugene in August 2021. Soler
