She is febrile with a temperature of 102° F (38.8 C), blood pressure of 125/83 mm Hg, and heart rate of 74 beats per minute. Labs are remarkable for WBC count of 14,000 cells/mm^3 (reference <11,000 cells/mm^3) with a significant left-shift. Blood cultures demonstrate gram-positive cocci on gram stain. Final cultures are pending. Current imaging is shown in figures A-C. What is the best initial treatment option for this patient?
