Slumping Aubrey Huff given break from Giants' lineup

SAN FRANCISCO -- Manager Bruce Bochy rested Aubrey Huff on Sunday, theoretically intending to lengthen the All-Star break for the first baseman who has continued to struggle offensively.

Huff, who entered the game batting .236, has not homered since his three-homer binge on June 2 at St. Louis. His drought has spanned 34 games and 125 at-bats.

Bochy hoped that the Giants' first-place status in the National League West will relax Huff, so that "he doesn't feel like he's let anybody down."
