WHITE SOX 4 | A’S 3 GIANTS 5 | DODGERS 2 Giants rally in 7th for win over A’s settle for split Dodgers By GREG BEACHAM Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO — For 6 1/2 innings, Chan Ho Park and Barry Zito pitched like it was 2001, back when both of these long-struggling starters were among baseball’s best. Zito, the Giants’ woebegone $126 million left-han- der, still seemed headed for anoth- er defeat until his San Francisco teammates took charge against a Los Angeles bullpen that’s also seen better days. Randy Winn and Fred Lewis hit two-out RBI singles during San Francisco’s four-run rally in the seventh inning, and the Giants ON TAP Giants kept the Dodgers out of first place at N.Y. Mets in the NL West with a 5-2 come- back victory Saturday night. Tuesday, 4:10 p.m. TV: FSN Before the Giants’ decisive Radio: 680 AM, rally, Park and Zito staged one of 96.7 FM the majors’ more unlikely pitch- ers’ duels. While Park threw six innings of three-hit ball, Zito (4-12) struck out 10 in perhaps the best start of his woeful season — and he ended up with his first home victory of the season. “That’s kind of the guy that I remember being,” said Zito, who has been downright solid in two of his last three starts after a horrific 2 1/2-month stretch to open the season. “Sometimes you want to make the fans happy, but you can’t want it too much, because you start pressing. You’ve just got to try to be your- self.”
