Any Giants victory is cause forcelebration these days, so while Friday night's 2-1 victory overHouston didn't exactly signal a breakout, it at least alleviated afew of the foreboding vibes surrounding the club.

They also received a sterlingdefensive contribution from little-used Mark DeRosa, who started atfirst base in place of the struggling Aubrey Huff.
