Giants' Denard Span: Launches seventh homer of season Saturday

Span went 2-for-5 with a solo homer in Saturday's 9-5 loss to the Mets.

Analysis:

The veteran leadoff man took Bartolo Colon deep in the third inning for his seventh bomb of the season. Span has been wielding a hot bat throughout the first three games of the series, going 9-for-14 with a double, homer and three RBI. The stretch has been a microcosm of a stellar August in which he's slashed .354/.358/.532 over 79 at-bats.
