Giants' Denard Span: Smacks fifth homer in win over Phillies
Span went 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Thursday's win over the Phillies.
Analysis:
The homer, Span's fifth of the season and first since June 28, broke a 2-2 tie in the top of the 10th inning. Span may not want to leave Philly as he was on fire during the three-game set, managing seven hits in 15 at-bats with a pair of steals along with the home run, which has gone a long way toward easing concerns regarding his recent quad ailment. He's locked in as the leadoff hitter against right-handed pitching.
