San Francisco Giants Notes, Quotes 2009-05-05
--INF/OF Jesus Guzman was named the Pacific Coast League's Player of the Week for last week, when he hit .421 (8-for-19) with four homers and 13 RBIs for Class AAA Fresno, which won four of five games. Guzman, not known for his defense, is being used mostly as a first baseman after he was named MVP of the Venezuelan League over the winter.

--LHP Barry Zito has three straight winless starts despite giving up three earned runs in 20 1/3 innings. Sunday, he yielded two hits over seven scoreless innings and retired 15 straight in one stretch. "I'm not worried about personal accolades or who gets the wins," Zito said. "It's not important for me. If it was, I'd probably be frustrated."

BY THE NUMBERS: 10-4 -- Giants' home record. Far better than their 2-7 mark on the road.

QUOTE TO NOTE: "I like this team right now. We were 2-7. Now we're at .500. That's something to be proud of." -- Barry Zito, on the on-the-rebound Giants.
