MILWAUKEE — The 2019 San Francisco Giants haven’t spent a single day above .500 and have dwelled in the National League West cellar for nearly two full months.
Yet after securing their seventh win in their past eight games on Friday, the Giants are suddenly one of the hottest teams in baseball and confident in their ability to make a second half run.
What’s changed for a team that coughed up a six-run lead to the Baltimore Orioles to fall 12 games below .500 on the final day of May? Since June 1, few clubs have demonstrated the consistency and resiliency the Giants have shown during a 20-14 stretch.
