1st inning: 13-5

The Giants got two three-run homers, one in the 3rd from Wilmer Flores and one in the 7th from Austin Slater, and with another big start (6 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 9 K) from Carlos Rodón the A's were roundly defeated. The Giants move into first place by percentage points as the Dodgers lose in Arizona. Only the 14-5 Mets have a better record in MLB.

The team's slash line (.238/.312/.392) doesn't look like much but an OPS of .704 is well above MLB's .675 average. Yes, it's a slow year for offense.
