Giants' Tyler Fitzgerald: Goes yard Sunday
Rotowire
Fitzgerald went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Athletics.

Overall, he's at a .227/.287/.333 slash line with three homers, 13 RBI, 18 runs scored, nine stolen bases, 10 doubles and one triple over 63 games. Fitzgerald is still seeing a starting role at second base, but with Matt Chapman back from the injured list, Brett Wisely could be in contention for more time at second base until Casey Schmitt (hand) is ready to return as well.

The Giants will go with a combination of Brett Wisely and Christian Koss at second base until Matt Chapman (hand) returns from the injured list, at which point Casey Schmitt is likely to shift over to the keystone.

Rotowire
Fitzgerald went 3-for-4 with a double during Friday's 2-0 victory over the Marlins.
Fitzgerald delivered fantastic production out of the ninth spot in the lineup yet again for the Giants, picking up his third three-hit game of the season and snapping a three-game drought without a hit in the process.
