SF's Nori Aoki hit by pitch, but runs bases before leaving (The Associated Press)

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- San Francisco leadoff hitter Nori Aoki has left the Giants' game against the Los Angeles Dodgers after getting hit by a pitch.

Aoki apparently was hit in the foot by Carlos Frias' second pitch Saturday. He ran the bases and scored before leaving in the bottom half of the first inning.

Aoki stayed down on the dirt for a long time after Frias' low pitch hit him. He eventually got up and took first base, but appeared to be struggling to get to third on Joe Panik's ensuing double.
