Fitzgerald went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-1 victory over the Rays. The 27-year-old filled in for Casey Schmitt (forearm) at second base for the second consecutive contest and made the most of it. Fitzgerald cracked a 398-foot solo shot off Tampa Bay reliever Mason Englert in the seventh to go back-to-back with Drew Gilbert. After a breakout rookie campaign in 2024, Fitzgerald has struggled with a .220/.278/.335 slash line, four homers, nine steals, 19 runs scored and 14 RBI across 233 plate appearances this season. He should continue to play a starting role in San Francisco while Schmitt is out.

The Giants recalled Fitzgerald from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Fitzgerald has started exclusively at second base with the major-league team this season. However, he played two games in right field after being optioned to Sacramento on July 9 and could see time there with San Francisco this time around. After the demotion, the 27-year-old slashed .250/.333/.346 with two home runs and 28 strikeouts across 117 plate appearances. With his promotion Tuesday, the Giants optioned Carson Whisenhunt to Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move.

Fitzgerald went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Athletics. Fitzgerald gave the Giants a little more breathing room with his eighth-inning homer. He's gone just 4-for-20 (.200) over six games since he was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento, though he has two doubles and a homer in that span. 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.
