The Giants came into the bottom of the 5th inning against the Mets tonight down 1 to 0 with the Mets' Oliver Perez pitching a perfect game for the first 4 innings.

Then the madness started. By the time it was over the Giants had scored 9 runs with Giants catcher Bengie Molina hitting two home runs. The first one to score 2 runs and the second one to score 3 runs. Rich Aurilia also hit a home run in the inning, his first of the year.

Molina came into the game with only 1 home run for the year in 96 at bats.

It was the first time a Giant hit 2 homers in one inning since Willie McCovey did it in 1977.

The Giants scored no other runs but they would not need them as they would go on bet the Mets 9 to 4. Barry Zito improved to 3-3 on the season.
