San Francisco Giants rookie Tyler Fitzgerald joined some pretty elite company with his recent home run streak.
Fitzgerald entered his team’s contest against the Los Angeles Dodgers with home runs in four straight games. The Giants shortstop made it five in a row in his first at-bat at Dodger Stadium.
Fitzgerald sent an 87-mph slider from Dodgers starter Landon Knack into the seats in left field to cut the Dodgers’ lead to 2-1. The 26-year-old became the first Giants player to hit a home run in five straight games since Barry Bonds in 2004.
