Giants strike early, beat Nationals

The San Francisco Giants wasted little time Tuesday night as got two first inning home runs that paved the way to a 6-3 victory over the Washington Nationals.  Fred Lewis led off the bottom half of the first inning with his 7th home run of the season and Bengie Molina connected 2 batters later for the first of his two home runs. Molina finished the game with 2 hits both of which were home runs and 3 RBI. The Giants would add 2 more runs in the 4th inning and tacked on another in the 8th inning, but never had much of a chance in this one. Barry Zito picked up the win for San Francisco as he pitched 6 innings allowing 7 hits, 3 runs and walks while striking out 5.  Brian Wilson picked up his 26th save of the year with a near perfect 9th inning.
